This is a dedicated thread for users to bounce around and brainstorm on ideas for new roles, items, game mechanics or anything else to improve and build upon our beloved Mafia game.

Back in 2015 Sims made a thread asking if anyone had any ideas for roles since Lucid was looking to make some new ones (found here: https://epicmafia.com/topic/71173?page=1) That thread's dead now, but it's always good to try to bring the community together and come up with new stuff for the game.

Some of you might know my reputation for designing new roles and my passion for Mafia. EpicMafia is a pretty cool website and can always use some new stuff to spice up and remix the usual game formula, and I know a few of you have ideas of your own.

NOTE: If you're here to complain about Sandbox moderation or the site mods, please don't.

in retrospect butterfly proc on death might be more balanced and interesting

choosing puts town at a distinct advantage


agreed with this, specially since it apparently can do it everynight, when it should only be once a game


also, its meeting is called "convert to mafia", probably should put something else there


butterfly should definitely only work once either way

i have one

https://epicmafia.com/role/15607
The Immigrant

Can hide in other people's homes
When people visit his home and he visit someone else they cant kill him.
if the home owner gets killed the immigrant dies also
Third Party since he isnt from here and only wins if village survives.
Pops up as Villager for cops/maf since he cant attack but visit other people.
if there is more immigrants they have a meeting who are they going to visit.

in the morning they can choose someone to play a tune to and that person falls asleep that night.
this leads to that person to be role blocked
this leads to that person not being able to join their faction's chat because they are asleep.


Loan Shark
Created bycoolkidrox1236 months ago
Each day can loan a room to one player who can then choose another player to room with
In exchange for the room, the player gives the Loan Shark their voting right
If the player that rented the room gets killed while inside the room the killer must pay the renter's debts by giving the Loan shark their voting right. Therefore revealing to the Loan Shark (and maybe the other players) who the killer is.
The renter can choose to repay their debt to the loan shark on a later day but each day they leave it off the debt will rise and once they finaly pay their debt the loan shark gains the amount of votes that the player was in debt for.
Wins if he has rented a room to every player/made all the players pay him

i like the Bride
over 8 years
There's like 50 million roles suggested but I'll suggest like two

Bride
-Once a game during the day, can choose to propose to a player
-The player must decide whether they will or will not marry the Bride
-If yes, the proposed player will be so overjoyed, their role will be revealed!
-If no, the Bride will die from shock
-Sided with the village

It's sort of like a risky day oracle. If you really think someone's mafia you could just try to propose to them at the risk of your life

Nutritionist
-Once a game, can choose to promote healthy eating to the village
-All voting logs (with the except of village meeting) will replace players' usernames and icons randomly with healthy food
-Sided with the mafia

If it included the village meeting too it'd be way too strong so I added that exception. This essentially can screw with the town, because for example, if I really wanna shoot Billy, I'd struggle to shoot. Cause my Gun Meet just has the names 'Apple' 'Mango' and 'Pineapple' instead of 'Billy' 'John' or 'Mary.' Or if I wanna ot as Governor? I'll have a hard time oting because all the choices are just food instead of Usernames.

Role suggestion: The Falconer

https://epicmafia.com/role/11853

His reports are based off of how long it takes for him to get a report. This will introduce interesting new gameplay. It would be like lazy cop but even better.

I don't think quoting things over and over again is going to make Lucid pay more attention to your stuff. Maybe try rewording it and adding to it if you feel like it was overlooked the first time?

Now that I'm looking at it, that sprite needs some work. I'll send you a new version some time soon.
