A group of minerals looking for vengeance against the abusive Town, Mafia, and Coven.

JUST A NOTE

Yes, these are easy to abbreviate because you can literally just use their Chemical Symbol.

The overall theme is resource management/null nights. '''Huh, interesting. This faction doesn't really fit with the Town of Salem theme though. Living minerals?'''

'''Also, an issue is that this faction has one killer. What happens when that killer dies? '''

NAME

Palladium

Summary

A protective and noble fighter who can contain and protect other people.

NOTES WHILE MAKING:

Absorbs Hydrogen. Could be useful for Hydrogen Role later.

Electrical. Not sure if I'll make an electrical charge effect.

Extra notes that it is used to create nuclear fuel. That works, Hydrogen most likely Killing role.

Win Condition - 

Kill every Town, Mafia, and Coven.

Alignment - 

Carbite Power

Attack -

Basic (Reacting)

Defense -

Basic

Unique -

Yes

Attributes -

Can only be one Palladium at a time.

Speak in Carbite chat at night.

Mechanics -

At night, choose someone to Null.

Nulled players will not be able to use Day abilities the next day, or use night abilities the next night.

Other minerals will have different reactions to being nulled.

Nulling someone will reveal their whispers.

Notifications -

(To null target) "You've been roleblocked!"

(To null target if they have a day ability) "You've been nulled!" (To self) "You've decided to null (name) tonight."

(To self) "You changed your mind."

-Investigate Results-

Sheriff - Not suspicious.

Investigator - 

Precise - Your target alters the effects of others. They must be Palladium! Maybe put it somewhere with more Townies, this investigation result already screws Sheriff over.
 * Sheriff, Executioner, Werewolf, Palladium, or Poisoner.

-Achievements-

Husk - Null a Blackmailer. This achievement affects the game, kind of like the "Stop hitting yourself" achievement of the Transporter.

Atomic - Absorb Hydrogen's attack but accidentally kill Hydrogen.*
 * only possible through witch and transporter

NAME

Mercury

Summary

A swift metal that causes insanity, but can also view it.

Alignment - 

Carbite Support/Deception

Attack -

None

Defense -

None

Unique -

No

Attributes -

Talk in Carbite chat at night.

Mechanics -

At night, choose someone to Madden.

Maddened players will see any Investigative results they get as guilty or framed. (Investigator sees framed results, Sheriff sees guilty, Tracker/LO will have random names, Pyschic will not get results.)

Maddened players will lose a charge if they have any.

Jailor is immune to losing charges. Maddening players twice will not give them notifications the second time. This is quite specific and slightly role dependent.

Up to 3 times, you can select yourself to view everything that happens to Carbites tonight. This will work like reverse spy. '''Interesting, but it's underpowered. Your Carbite team can just tell you what happened in whispers or in Night Chat. Instead, make it so that Mercury will see everyone who visited themselves and one of their team members.'''

NULLED: When Nulled, an Amalgam will form. Amalgams visit random players in the name of other players. '''I don't like this. Town of Salem shouldn't have an RNG factor. Instead, how about when Mercury is Nulled, whoever Mercury maddened will be maddened first, then transported with Mercury?'''

(Amalgam created, Amalgam visits (Name) as (Name 2), (Name 2) will be shown to visit 2 people at night.)

Notifications -

(Target): You were Maddened!

(Target): You were controlled! (In targeted chat of charge loser): You have (x) charges left.

(Name) was visited by (Name)!

(Name) was Framed/Investigated/Blackmailed/etc......

-Investigate Results-

Sheriff - Suspicious

Investigator - 

Precise - Your target causes insanity. They must be Mercury!
 * Framer, Vampire, Jester, Mercury, or Hex Master.

NAME

Hydrogen

Summary

An element allowed into the Carbites to cause havoc.

Alignment - 

Carbite Killing

Attack -

Basic

Defense -

None

Unique -

No

Attributes -

Talk in Carbite chat at night.

If you do not kill on a night, you die. '''This kind of sucks for Hydrogen. Just one role-blocker or TP, and the only killing role in the whole party dies.'''

Mechanics -

You have half the time of everyone else to choose a target. If you do not attack then you will die that night. What's the point of having half as much time as anyone else?

Teammates cannot see who you attack and you cannot see who they select. Well, you could just say in the chat who you're going to select.

At night, choose someone to Combust.

Combusting deals a rampage, but you can also kill teammates if you're not careful. '''That is a lot of power. Probably a little overpowered.'''

NULLED:

Causes your attack to become powerful single attack.

If you visit Palladium instead of being Nulled, then Palladium will kill its visitors.

Notifications -

I quit on this one

-Investigate Results-

Sheriff - Suspicious

Investigator - 

'Precise - 'Your target is atomic. They must be Hydrogen!
 * Bodyguard, Godfather, Arsonist, Hydrogen, or Crusader.

Finishing later

'''​​​​​​​Yeah, main problem is that the faction has one killing role. Once the Hydrogen is dead, the rest of the faction is doomed. The Coven solves this with a Necronomicon that grants kills to members, and the Mafia has promotion. You need to come up with something like that for your faction.'''
