Hello Sandboxers. Lucid is interested in making new roles, and I know you guys have a bunch of good ideas, so what I'd like to do is get a list of all of the best ideas in this thread and have a poll that you guys can vote on for lucid to make.

On an unrelated note, if you guys know of any bugs with existing roles, please PM me so I can test it out and forward it to lucid so they can get fixed

You should make the Old Maid actually playable. It's not in the selections for creating a game.

Frisbee-ist

-each night hands out a frisbee
-frisbee can be passed around like bomb
-if you're holding frisbee Into the night, you are role-blocked until you get rid of frisbee (the following day)

Frisbee-ist wins if he successfully gets 2 frisbees into play, and both frisbees are handed to the SAME person at one point in the game. So if night 1 frisbee-ist hands a frisbee to player X, and during the day player C ends up with the frisbee, they carry it into the night. Now the frisbee-ist hands another frisbee to player Z, and during day 2 player C unsuspectadly hands a frisbee to player Z, the frisbee-ist immediately wins the game. If the frisbee-ist dies he can not win.

May seem overpowered, but if town is smart he is not. Can not give a frisbee to a player who is holding a frisbee and can not give a frisbee to self. Just imagine while 2 frisbees are in play how fun it would be to be the frisbee-ist, the town frantically throwing frisbees and trying to avoid people with frisbees. If the same person carries a frisbee during a second night, he dies the next morning. Prevents people from just holding onto frisbees so the frisbee-ist can not win. Sided with 3p. Also where is lucid?

Necromancer:
Town sided
Can revive 1 person per game.
When there is a necromancer in the game, nobody can see day/night actions or whispers an alive person cannot see.

The meta comes into play when there is a miller death.

Paradox

Choses 2 players during the day.

The players have a meeting at night.As a player in the meeting you have 3 options. Kill yourself, Kill the opponent, Kill no one.

If you kill no one, your opponent does not die.

If you kill yourself, if the opponent tried to kill you he dies, or else you die.

If you kill your opponent, and he chose to kill himself, you die. Or else he dies.

Chosen players can not talk.

Sided with third side. Winds if one of the last 2.


P.S. Other possible win conditions :
1: 5 dead because of him/5 alive because of him ;
2: Both chosen survive during the night.
3: We can remove the Kill No one option for a certain death mode(either both die, or only 1 die). Up to you guys.


name should be Warden or Guard

there is a situation on the internet about 2 prisoners making choices like this where they can not talk

Cookie Monster-

~ every night, can give someone a cookie
~ every night, can kill someone who has a cookie
~ can not both kill someone and give a cookie during one night.
~ wins if all of town has gotten a cookie and still alive, or if killed at least 2 people and among the final 2.
~ sided with 3p

People are notified that they receive a cookie (You receive a cookie!) so they are scared of the probable death and may aggravate the Cookie Monster if they out the cookie)

A good alternative for alien. Out of all the roles I've made, this one should be made.

Chaos

During the day, everyone enters the asylum. Let's say players A, B and C are in the asylum. A ----talks to---> B, B----talks to----> C, C ----talks to ----> A. A can only see C's messages, B can only see A's and C can only see B's.

Whispering works the same way. Similar to a normal day, all players have to vote to lynch someone, however no one is not an option.

Chaos can select 'yes' at night for the next day to be a Chaos day. Only happens once.

Robot: Follows Asimov's laws of Robots.
At game's start it is assigned one person sided with the village that they must protect.
If the person is targetted by the mafia, the Robot dies instead.
If the person is chosen to be lynched the Robot dies in their place.
Cannot be converted or lovered.

Operates similar to angel as a third party role but is aimed to only protect village.


Actually angel can only be on third and village I think ^^
And also er... what party is this Robot?
