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

Lucid are you gonna add the underling with placeholder icon? PLease? I wont ask you for anything ever again :( https://epicmafia.com/role/15710


Well, I did an icon for it, it's concept is a traitor using maf clothes:



You can use it if you like it.


Don’t build underling. It has no use or purpose not already fulfilled by other roles. Recruit was a much better idea.

Add into the description that seer turns blue upon death.


Yeah some of the new roles could use some little "fixes" or "tweaks" just for clarity and stuff.

Like forager should recieve the "You found an item in the trash!" in the morning not at night, just for clarity. Same thing with Avenger(?) and Housekeeper(?) (not sure).

Not sure how it is with Queen Bee though, I know you recieve the system msg about sticky shoes in the night but does everyone who Queen Bee uses her meeting on recieve that? Even simple blue villagers? Cause then people could use that to clear themselves and I don't know if that's good or bad.

Also I've noticed that in the games with Rainmaker there's no red text msg at all and I think it should be added for clarity as well.
"Due to bad weather today's lynch has been canceled" or whatever.

Yeah,thought so, but well I think it can be made in the role creator so I just did an icon for Ethereal.

Lucid, maybe make Butler only appear to be blue if lynched, but if someone shoots him like Sheriff or something, he flips Butler. Just like miller flips his true role if killed.

Hypnotist is driver that is just like dreamer?


Seems like it's less of a Driver and more like a reverse-toreador.


no it is basically driver lol.


Driver makes anyone who visits person #1 visit person #2. Hypnotist makes person #1 visit person #2.


wait, so it is ghoul

I think Supervillain is one word, or at least wikipedia says it is. Looks cool tho!

I think the important things right now is helping new players.

Most of them know how to play basic mafias but there are not really many people who would help them how to use EM mechanics and basic tactics.

I suggest you create some tutorial game modes, allow people to interact with how the game works.


Having a dedicated, automated tutorial is a good idea.
