I'm just gonna review the Prankster, having given my thoughts on the Marshall *cough* garbage *cough* DesertStorm11 wrote: I have never played Forum Mafia, so I really cannot explain these roles as much as I'd like to...

Prankster:

(This role is in the experimental stages in Forum Mafia)

Alignment: Mafia Deception

At night, you may target a player. Your target's real night results will be replaced with a result of your choosing.


 * Now, I'm honestly not sure how this role will work. There is a chance that we could figure out a way to make it so you could choose a result of something happening to your target, but I'm sure that would take quite a lot of coding.

'''So what I think this would look like is during the day you'd type the message, then during the night you'd choose a target. That or you'd type the message after you picked the target, but....'''


 * Instead of choosing a night result, maybe we could figure something else out, like always making your target think they were controlled by a Witch. I really don't know, so I'll need some suggestions.

My suggestion is above

The effect you choose will not actually happen. For example, if you prank an Investigator into thinking he was roleblocked, he will still receive his results. However, he will not know for sure what really happened.

Other pranks cannot be overwritten, and if a player is pranked by two Pranksters, they will receive two messages.

Good, makes sense.

If you are controlled by a Witch, you will make your target think they were controlled by a Witch. (The original result was that they "slept peacefully" but I didn't like it, and I believe that was a specific result from Forum Mafia.)

You may only prank people three times.


 * This could probably be changed if it's too underpowered.

No it seems fine

Same goals and other things as Mafia So yeah!

How about...

Consig: Your target tricks people into believing false things, they must be a prankster!

Sheriff: Your target is a member of the mafia!

Investigator: Lookout/Forger/Amne OR Escort/Consort/Transporter
