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

Can you PLEASE make it so that our in-game settings remain selected?

Currently, if we wanted to select our settings, like Hide Vocab, Mute, etc., we have to do it every single time we open our browser. It would be amazing if we could just have a default settings option so we don't have to do it every time.

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!

I think it might be helpful if in death messesages and in in-game action messesages, usernames and roles were bold. This would make the important information pop, which would make things easier to follow, as well as easier to review past days.

I am going to keep recommending this as I have for FOUR years already

Two choices in this one:
Martyr
- Can override a lynch once during a game
- Martyr will die instead of the person being lynched
- Sided with the village
—
Martyr
- Chooses one person during the night
- If that person were to die then Martyr dies instead
- Sided with the village

First one is a worst Governor
Second one is worst Bodyguard.

edit: An idea that would keep it in line with yours could be:

Matryr:
Once per game, if a town member is lynched the martyr will die instead.
Sided with the village

It would happen automatically, and would give town a clear and a second chance in ML between CCs this way.

Troublemaker activating activates a whisper-dropdown that reveals the person?

also yee as the person says, messesage should probably be changed to "Stir up trouble today?"

Lucid you should talk with moderators and role moderators about how you can help speed up cheating investigations so they don't last multiple days in a row

also lucid can you make family profiles have a nice overlay over the background like it is in profiles so that text can actually be visible with some backgrounds

So lucid going back to the suicide bug (bork) issue:

It has been observed that bork makes people unable to vote only in the village meeting. It has also been observed that this only happens when there is another day action that has not been taken. So, what if you took the code from the troublemaker meeting and used that as the normal village meeting? Perhaps it would thwart the bork.

Shoggoth starts in the grave, but, obviously is useless without cult. The idea of Shoggoth, which I only made as an example of what I meant from the previous comment, is to kind of set the environment or tone of a game merely because Shoggoth is in play. It's like a big noticable thing that everybody has to look at and worry about.

LastProphet says

Let me give an example of a "Meteor Replacement" role so people can get an idea of what I mean.

Shoggoth:
1. While in play, cult may choose to attempt to resurrect Shoggoth instead of recruiting more cult members
2. Needs at least two cult for cult to make this decision
3. If resurrected two nights, Shoggoth joins the living
4. After leaving the graveyard, Shoggoth may strongman kill two players at night, but, has no idea who is cult
5. Only priest or samurai may banish Shoggoth upon Shoggoth attempting to kill them
6. Wins with cult

so shaggoth starts in the graveyard? not that i'm going to build it or anything.. lol

Icons are too cute so I reworked those three:

Waitress:
•If a person that would give an item die at night, she delivers the item on the original giver place.
•Once she dies a random item is given to a player.
•Sided with the village.

Photographer:
•Once per game, she can take a photo of someone who is alive.
•If a player that she took a photo of changes their role she will get a report saying their name and what is the role.
•Sided with village.

Heiress: (credit to tinynanami)
•At night, may choose one dead player to inherit all their items.
•Sided with village.

lol... never ends
