Post by Thunderdome Mon Aug 12, 2013 2:23 am

I want to open up a discussion about new role ideas for us to use here for our games. 
This thread is for all members to brainstorm and give/receive feedback on their role ideas. 

If a proposed role gets enough support, we will even add it to the official role list!

I'll start things off with my own role idea. 
I had conceived a role that i dubbed, The Mad Bomber. This role would act as follows:

The Mad Bomber

  • 3rd party role, no alignment. 
  • would appear innocent to all investigators and nighttime visitors.
  • weak doctor would protect successfully. 
  • Cannot be converted.
  • Sets timed explosives on night 1 and Wins the game if still alive by end of Day 5 by blowing up the town. (Winning Day # would be determined by host, and dependent on number of players.) 



So, anyone care to offer feedback or comments on this new role suggestion?

I like that role too! That sounds really cool! I think it's the kind of role that would land in expert or at least intermediate. What do you think, guys?

Personally I think this should be in Expert level like the other power roles and leave Intermediate level with: Mafia, Cop, (Strong or Weak) Doctor*, Townies, Serial Killer, and Vigilante.

Since Expert level is where we can have more experiments going on with players who really do understand the game better.

*It's up to the game host whether they want to have strong or weak doctor.

Again, I feel that beginner games should gradually introduce new roles and that intermediate games should have multiple roles you are expected to know how to play, do research etc. 

I think beginner's section should be a learning experience, while intermediate is certainly not.

Well, I'm up for whatever you two want. My only concern (somewhere in the future) is for it to accidentally get out of hand a bit in the beginner games with the some of the other roles introduced.

Again, I think only one new role at a time per game. 

For example, Mafia, doctor, cop, and the miller. 

Or: Mafia, doctor, cop, and the fool. 


You see? You can only choose one extra role to put in, versus having a bunch of roles all at once, while intermediate is more free for all.

I think that in beginner games, limiting it to one "extra" role per game is a good idea.

Any other role ideas?

I like the bomber idea. I have a question about him though. What does cannot be converted mean?

I think "converted" refers to roles like the Masons (who convert other players into Masons), the Cultist and possibly the Yakuza.

Well, there are roles on the villagers, mafia, and 3rd party sides which allow a player to be converted to their side. For example, the turncoat is turned to mafia if the mafia tries to kill them, or the Yakuza which dies taking the place of a villager role and making the role mafia. There are others, but I don't quite remember them. Oh! There is the cupid whom can make someone fall in love with him/her and therefore become 3rd party in addition to their role.

Don't worry, Yami! We're gonna pick through the roles in the beginner games and kind of teach everyone different roles so they're ready for intermediate games where more roles will consistently be played.

New role idea!

The Walmart Market Human Resources Manager (or MHRM)

Village aligned
When another villager attempts to interact with the MHRM, the action is cancelled and the MHRM goes on vacation, leaving the village for the remainder of the game.

I assure you that this role is in noooooooo way based on a real life person. Not at aaaaalllll.

Only if it is personal and embarrassing information.
But remember, anytime a villager needs something from them, or is approached by a villager, he MUST go on vacation.

So if the Cop inspected them, they'd go on vacation? Or if the Milk Maid paid them a visit, they'd leave?

Maybe they'd win if they got to the end of the game without any Village-teamed members inspecting them at night? XD
