Here's another idea I just thought up

SHAMAN https://epicmafia.com/role/12617

• Can reveal a player's true role once per game
• Gives out one crystal ball each night
• When the holder of a crystal dies, the role of the last player chosen will be revealed to all
• Sided with the village

I realized there wasn't a role that specifically gives out crystal balls, and I think that should become a thing. It also introduces a new mechanic that reveals someone's true role (bypasses tailor, actress, even a celebrity if they're culted)

I think you've forgotten about Enchantress https://epicmafia.com/role/2216

*edit damn i'm late i love correcting people :/

∆ flu boy
∆ 3p
∆ each night can pass someone the flu
∆ during the day time, that person may pass the flu to others
∆ after a short while, the last person with the flu catches the flu and is poisoned
∆ wins if 3 people die from the flu

† bioterrorist
† sided with the maf
† does not meet
† once a game can throw a stink bomb into the town
† the bomb is so smelly that 1-3 people get poisoned, can include mafia members

new page = new roles

© Snake
© 3rd party
© everyone who visits the snake gets poisoned
© wins if last man standing or equivalent

flower girl sounds like it could create a lot of interesting situations

I'm just gonna slap my other ideas into here. Open for editing and criticism.

FLOWER GIRL https://epicmafia.com/role/3415

• Chooses one player during the night
• That player will receive a flower
• The flower protects them from dying for one whole day
• Once the night begins, they must give the flower to someone else
• Sided with the village

This is a town-sided creepy girl, basically.

ARCHER https://epicmafia.com/role/3974

• Can shoot one player with an arrow during the day
• Player shot will die at the end of the day
• Arrow can penetrate through vests
• Archer is not revealed upon shooting the arrow
• Sided with the mafia

This role uses the bleeder mechanic that I think is extremely underrated. Archer could easily replace Sniper in some competitive set-ups to make it more serious.

PEDDLER https://epicmafia.com/role/4599

• Gives one player a cheaply made gun each night
• Gun will backfire when shot
• Anyone who visits Peddler will receive a cheaply made gun
• Wins if they survive to the end
• Sided with the third party

This is more-so a fun sandbox role, because who doesn't love guns that backfire?

INVESTIGATOR https://epicmafia.com/role/4421

• Visits one player each night
• Receives a report of what their role is and who they visited
• Does not participate in mafia meetings
• Sided with the mafia

A combination of both Stalker and Scout, but the downside is that they aren't in the mafia meeting

SACRIFICE https://epicmafia.com/role/6168

• When lynched, all forms of protection will fail the following night
• Does not participate in mafia meetings
• Sided with the mafia

Mafia version of a Virgin (similar to Widow, but instead of a guaranteed kill, all protection fails) which is the exact opposite of Virgin, who protects everyone.

proposition from the UN:

Illuminati (alt name: conspiracists)
=========================
- Shares a night meeting with all other members of the Illuminati
- The meetings are anonymous
- Wins if overwhelms town
- Sided with the third party

Templars are a very underutilized mechanic that already has a lot of potential.

foxie make comp setups

Investigator
=-=-=-=-=-=-=

- Chooses someone every night to learn their true alignment
- Sided with the village

//////

It's psychic minus the visit constraint

Memory wiper:

Mafia Sided.
Chooses one day that has already passed. This day disappears and is no longer able to be viewed.
2nd option: can also choose a day in the future to delete once that day is over (mostly for must act games)
Can only use this power once.

they're underused because unless you make a setup that doesnt feature unique town roles popular than you're never going to get more than 1 templar per game and even if you do the chances of you getting a templar order larger than 1 is infinitely minute unless the setup itself is largely based on templars, which if so, would make it boring as poo

feel free to disagree with me i just scoured this thread for an hour and 30 minutes of my life

I'm happy that you included HandyMan! ;_;

What do you think about a role that changes the way we use (or mostly don't use) the templar role?

The idea behind templars which sets them apart from masons is that they don't actually grow, but rather shrink in size over the course of the game. Templars are already a good role if used, they simply aren't.

Templars are a very underutilized mechanic that already has a lot of potential.

That's my role named Doppelganger except it's mafia sided??

you and croned have some talking to do

I studied the art of kah-rah-tay when I was younger

I hope he is ready

imo i think it should be third sided but then again I think everything should be third sided

Wikiipedia says

I really like the monkey role (chooses someone at night to mimic their action on someone else) by croned

This would be great in sandbox and add a new layer of depth anywhere else. Thanks Foxie for the list btw

Let's get this role made!

Cuckold (alt. name: Sishen, Sims, or Kenny)
----------
- Chooses two people to watch
- The two people's night actions will be driven to each other
- Can not win
- Sided with the third party

Im going to put together a team of specialists to determine whether or not the dead can speak irl. Until then, all I know is that we're currently in the unique situation of having the oppurtunity to allow the dead to speak to the living through the game of epicmafia.

the dead can't speak IRL

proof?

dead = heart as stopped pumping

you need to have your heart pumping to speak
