New Roles

about 6 years

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

Heyo lucid! I have a problem with the image hosting websites EM currently supports. Embedding images from the current sites doesn't work because those sites are blocked in my country. If you can add vgy.me and/or postimages.org to the list of embeddable sites for images so I can embed images and be able to see them that would be pretty amazing!

bump on this? D:

Lucid: we found a bug

https://epicmafia.com/game/6814503/review

In this game, someone was kicklynched and the Governor could still OT. Thus, the person was lynched and then Governor killed a second person, causing a mafia win (even though someone suicided to prevent the bugged game from completion).

Copy/paste still doesn't appear to be fully fixed. Right now, we cann't CTRL+V to copy, we can only right click to copy.

>gaslighter is in the game
>open up notepad and keep track of reports that way instead

Honestly that makes the role even better imo.
All you had to do was put a role in a setup, and now people pay attention? Win win.

why don't we just charge people $0.99 for every ISP vio?

Dunno if you're taking role suggestions still, but I thought of one that might be a challenge to put in.

Gaslighter:
Sided with the Mafia.
Can edit messages, including system messages and the voting log.

I think it'd require a bit of finesse to be used well.
Do it too obviously, and everyone will know they're being gaslit. It'd keep villagers on their toes, and it'd be more powerful against people who don't pay attention.

vent

Vent creates new messages. Gaslighter edits old ones. Although the end goal, manipulation and misinformation are similar, they are entirely different.

For example:

You could edit a cops claim from a few days back to say someone else was innocent, and pretend it always said that.

You could edit a shot to make it seem like someone else shot them, like an illusionist for those who forget or arent paying attention.

You could cheat at crier trivia.

There are tons of other applications that could be done, if you're clever. These are just a few ideas. A role like this would really be at its peak during the later phases of the game, when trying to convince townies in Lylo and such, where as vent only really has strength in early game when people arent aware or prepared for it.

Since Troublemaker is a role now, all we need to add is Switcher/Swapper to make the rest of One Night Stand mode.
