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.
It's not just family backgrounds, it's family avatars too. After setting a new one they refuse to update immediately and you have to wait a day or so, and sometimes it still won't update.
Allow us to add an anonymous deck when we create the game, and not the setup.
The reason no one plays anonymous games is because we have to tediously create a setup devoted to it. If we could just add it when we start a game it would be so much easier.
demon - maf sided - can choose to possess a player during the day - at night, the demon gets to perform whatever night meetings the player might have - if demon possesses a priest, it will fail and the demon becomes a villager - if demon possesses an angel, it will fail and the demon will die
Civilian(-23), Suspect(-92), Leader(-190), Confused Cop(-201), Paranoid Cop(-91), Naive Cop(-127), Judge(-95) are all downvoted roles. I think it would be befitting to move them all to the created roles pool, and make any roles that actually look good in this topic(I'm all for a knife and a role that has one of them) official roles, or possibly move any highly upvoted suggested roles into the official roles.
Of if not a cop, what about something like Jeweler, i.e. they can compare two diamonds (people) to tell which is a fake, or Banker with a similar reason.
Of course the explanation doesn't need to be in the role, just the name lol
It has unlimited guns and vests. Can choose to roleblock someone using a bug. If it dies the game borks. Its icon is with a rabbit or one of those windows tulips.
Any thoughts of additions are welcome

when you use two or more custom roles (ones that were made after a certain time period, idk when but mine are pretty old and still mess up) then they all merge into the same role. This causes their icons to all be the same, and on top of that they all become the same role. Because of this, some games cannot start and setups cannot be played. including my really fun setups using 5 custom roles i made myself.
heres a quick picture of a setup i made using custom roles i made myself.
