Hello everyone! I would like to ask the people who are interested in this event to participate and contribute as much as possible.

In order for 2 new roles to be added to em, the community has to work together to refine the ideas that are going to be mentioned below. We have to collectively select 2 of the best ideas and make sure their version is the best one possible. The next step would be to come up with some sort of artwork for the selected roles. Lucid mentioned something about rewarding the users behind the artwork that would get selected in the end for those 2 roles.

Jack the Ripper (originally Hypocrite)

  • Jack the Ripper hates anyone who kills.
  • Jack the Ripper only wins when the game ends and all murderers are dead.
  • If Jack the Ripper receives a gun or knife and kills someone with it, he will not consider himself a murderer.
  • To Jack the Ripper, murderers are killing roles or any other player that has successfully eliminated someone else (shot, stabbed, blown up, etc.)
  • If a player survives one of these actions, Jack the Ripper will not consider the attacker a murderer. (~Jennings)

Cat Lady

  • Chooses one player every night. The player is instantly alerted that a cat is at their door. They have two options: Kill the cat, and let it go. If you kill the cat, you are roleblocked and the Cat Lady doesn't know who was visited. If you let it go, the Cat Lady learns your role.
  • Sided with the mafia. (~Her)

Robinhood

  • Visits two people, taking all items from the first and giving them to the second (cannot visit self either way)
  • Action fails if trying to steal from a mafia
  • Sided with the village (~Torreador)

Vice President

  • If the president dies, takes their place
  • All townies immediately receive a message of their new president
  • Attends mafia meetings, and makes them anonymous
  • Cannot win if they are the vice president (~Alyssa)

Gossiper

  • Chooses one person every night.
  • Will see some whispers this person receives/makes.
  • Gossiper's action does not count as a visit.
  • Sided with the mafia. (~Soluciones)

(revising) the Seer

  • Knows all mafia from the beginning of the game.
  • If lynched at the end of the game, the last mafia can guess who the Seer is for autowin.
  • If the Seer dies, they will appear as a random (non-mafia) role in the setup and their will will always be blank. If dead, the mafia can still attempt a guess to the Seer's identity at the end of the game.
  • If there are multiple Seers in a game, only one Seer will know the mafia at any given time.
  • If there are two mafias and multiple Seers, the knowledge of the mafias will be split between them.
  • Sided with the village. (~Shwartz99)

Whistleblower

  • Once per game can force someone to vote someone else. Vote cannot be OT'D if it is a hammer. Sided with maf (Will create more tension in selfing/hammering based setups (~Moldyches)

Soldier

  • If they are the last man standing against a single mafia or third party, the village wins.
  • Sided with the village. (~XFire)

PowerTown

  • Each night chooses a power role from the options provided to him. (the mods should determine the list)
  • Night meeting goes accordingly
  • Sided with the village

PowerMafia

  • Each night chooses a mafia role from the list.
  • Night meeting goes accordingly
  • Sided with the mafia

- Sided with the mafia.
- Selects one player each night.
- The selected player's messages will only come through without vowels and spaces the next day, making them harder to understand.


this is actually hilarious to me for some reason

seer should always appear blue now

i've also reworked things, so now i should be able to add new roles without killing the game server!


Lame. That hardcore limits setup possibilities. Now you HAVE to use blues. Plus, I liked roleswapping the dead seer as gs.

My idea was completely serious btw. Please make Sharon a role. We demand it. I will help you with any questions you may have. She must be holding a mimosa in her icon btw. Please, let us make this role happen. It will improve everything. Everyone I've mentioned it to in every game loves the idea.


sharon's a middle aged mum, you gotta give her a good white girl name like becky or yasmin


how is yasmin a white girl name???


I never said yasmin. Please do not slander me.

Sharon is a perfectly acceptable middle aged white-woman name.
I stand by Sharon as my #1 choice, but if it has to go by another name, it must be Susan, Karen, Nancy, or Kathy.


no i agree, but i think you need a basic white girl name for brunch, not middle aged alcoholic mum

Make a list of things To Do and do them one at a time in order instead of doing everything at the same time. For the mobile version, work when you can and after finishing it, rather than publishing it as beta , let the players of EpicMafia test it.

I am too busy those days but when i can i wil draw how i feel like it should look.
