Pandora
  • Sided with the mafia.
  • Once a game, at night, gives someone a box.
  • Person who receives box must open the box within two days, or it will open by itself by the end of the second day.
  • If you open the box, the person selected will be either killed, a famine will plague the village, or it will instantly go to night. (No lynching.)
  • Pandora's night action goes through first, so if she is killed at night, the box is still passed.
  • If the box-holder dies, the box is sent back to Pandora.
  • If Pandora were to die, the box would be lost.
  • Thief can steal the box from players, but not Pandora.
  • Wins if mafia outnumber villagers.

Yes. If they receive the box, they can't win anymore, but they can still do an action. Like in the myth, when Pandora gets the box, it isn't good.

This is a cool role. I like that Pandora wins if they don't get their own box. If they do, they can't win anymore, right? But maybe they'll still get a gun or something cool.

I like this role; but make it that Pandora wins if she is alive at the end of the game and she hasn't opened the box. She starts out with it and can pass but she herself needs to not open it. Also after someone dies with the box; it goes back to her. Like in the myth; if she would not have opened it; she would have been fine.

@moonunit Yeah. Everytime someone receives it, it can be reopened, and the process repeats.

Maybe the win condition is better than before? Again, I need some good win conditions.

Really bad role. Will never win.

Pandora can't win since no one would open it the second time. You could make it so that pandora wins randomly between 2-4 opens or something like that.

this is a stupid role

How about instead of random, its sequential. When pandora hands it out, it is ALWAYS option X. next day, it is Y, the next, it is Z. Then it goes back to X and repeats. So they have to know when pandora passed it out to be safe.

@bwdrum. Thank you so much! And I agree we need a positive spin on it. So thank you. And yeah, win condition might need some thought.

I like Jack Of All Trade roles so this is pretty neat! But there are a few things- probability isn't always the best thing for a game of mafia so it would be great if we didn't have so many new roles which depends so much on luck and chance.

Also with the win condition, it forces the game to end after 3 nights which limits things like what other roles are able to be in the setup and even more so how big Pandora setups can be.

I think it's a matter of the person receiving the box choosing whether or not they want to open it...
you need to give a good alternative so people are tempted to open the box. like...
-33% death
-33% role reveal
-33% receive an item (gun, vest, bread, etc)
and Pandora wins if the box gets opened 2-3 times (i'm not sure which is more reasonable)
Sweet concept! Plussed :D
