- You can disguise as any role of your choice during the night and it will last until you change role.

- You can only have 3 disguises.

- Sheriff can still detect you as a member of mafia.

Notes: This will increase the claim power of mafia. This will counter spy and lookout since it doesn't visit anymore. If a spy bugs you it will show up as  " Your target disguised their identity ".

Seems okay, but why bring it back to 3 disguises?

Framer Buff

- Select someone to frame each night. You can choose to make a fake role of your target, making investigators confuse.

- Sheriff will see your target as a member of mafia

- Your target will stay framed and their roles faked for two days.

- You can also prevent the sheriff to detect your fellow mafia members but this will only last during the night you target them.

- When a spy bugs your target in the same night you framed them, it will show up as   " Your target disguised their identity ".

Notes: The odds of getting checked and framed in the same time is low, that's why I prolonged the effect of the framed target. You can add a limited usage of this ability if you suggest. If this is too powerful, framers can only fake their target's role as a Framer/Jester/Vampire.

'''Hmmm. While I'm not averse to the idea of a Framer buff, this is a little too much. I would remove at least one of these perks, and possibly make it last for that night and the next night.'''

Forger Buff

- You can copy the last will of your selected target during the night. This takes a night and a visit to do this.

- If you succesfully copied a last will, it will be automatically be shown in the night you decide to forge them.

- If you have no forgeries left, you cannot copy a last will anymore.

Notes: Since players put their role in their last will, this will make a 2nd consigliere making mafia have an information advantage. Players can edit their last will any time so it's obvious how to counter it.

'''I don't like this one. Having a Consigliere is good enough, but having one that can also forge wills? That's a tad overpowered. And what would happen if the target changes their will for that night?''' Summary

These ideas are good. They're a little unbalanced as of now, but that can be changed. I would completely rethink the Forger's buff, however. Do you have any ideas for the other Mafia?
