New Roles

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

^^^Yeah I was under the impression troublemaker would work like this

during the day troublemaker would get an option: cause troubles? yes/no and if they hit yes and the d1 lynch goes through, then a second lynching begins.

It'd make voting for cc's a lot more easier and imo would make troublemaker a better role, but if that takes up too much befuddling coding then the current way it is doesn't "ruin" the role.

hey lucid for troublemaker lynches i think that if a player is killed during that day they dont disappear from the list on the right side.

in this case, flicker was killed by a bomb and disappeared from the normal town lynch but not from the troublemaker list




we still doing this thing where you can't have a second drop down list to choose a second person? come on that's sloppy.


100% this. The 2nd lynch should also be a drop-down list. How it is now makes it incredibly crowded for some people, which can be unfortunate if they received an item they need to use or if a bomb is being passed around.



Maybe it would be possible/easier to do a lynch after the first one. So like after the first lynch the day wouldn't go to n2 but stay on d1, lynched person would die and the Village meeting would reset for a second lynch.

Would it be possible to move the troublemaker lynch to night? Make it a party/blizzard style meeting with the lynch. That might solve some of the issues.

We could do with a role that appears as a vigilante to self but is actually sided with the mafia.

Hey, lucid I was wondering if it would be possible for you to add something to help the cheating investigators. It would help us a lot if there were a way to search all the games players have played together. I know there is a script for this that I think croned made? I'm not sure, but I would feel safer if it were on the site. Plus this only works for competitive games and It would really help if we could get their recent red heart games together too.

Also if there were a way to search all the reports a certain moderator did too that would be helpful to the mod team (mainly the admins.)

Resurrectionist and necromancer are still too powerful. Add this effect:

When resurrectionist/necromancer dies, the revived target will also die


that's making them more powerful bro

GrannyPixel says

When you veg in any game you now go to the Underworld rather than the Graveyard.


Isn't that a good thing? Since roles like medium have access to players in the graveyard but not people who veg. I don't think it negatively affects games with no graveyard roles either.


I just wanted to point it out, I think someone even went there when they were veg killed.

Make no mistake lucid, this user might have a nice name color, but his opinion is not factual.

no one plays with sounds on, why is this being brought up

Imo seperate sound FX mutes AND role sound fx mutes need to be added, bc the goal here is people don't just mute the entire game and thus miss day gongs and ping sounds.

"A bunch of people yelling"
Sounds like we found the new sound effect for Lightkeeper days.

Lucid can you remove the "party" sound? I'm sorry. I appreciate the effort, but it is absolutely too-much. A bunch of people yelling? Could you not have used a party horn?

Or at least, as I've said before:

Two new options: Mute sound FX (bomb, gun, knife, ext)

Mute role sound fx (rainmaker sound, medusa sound, party sound, voodoo sound)
