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

Monobear says

Here is a role I made working overtime at the Role Mine again, oof ow my back. Have you ever played mafia and said "I rolled a human and/or monster and/or devil. I don't like this." I have the deal for you:

Burger

-Once a game, can offer its delicious meat to a villager

-They will become so full from the burg, they will be unable to perform any night actions for the rest of the game

-Sided with the mafia

It's almost like a super hooker, but you can do this to a powerful action role like Detective or Surgeon/Doc/Nurse and have them unable to help the town. Only drawback is a hooker can at least visit other players to stop a det/doc/etc., while the Burger do not have this luxury.

They're also burgers and they're delicious








PosterChild says

Halloween spirit (third party):
-Has to visit one player every night giving them an option: "Trick or treat".
-Cannot visit the same player twice.
-If the player chooses treat the halloween spirit gains 1 candy.
-If the player chooses trick they either (random chance):
-> are bleeding the next day.
-> die in the night
-> are poisoned the next day.
[or just die idk]
-The Halloween spirit wins upon collecting 3 candies or outnumbering the town.

It can be adjusted.

Looks fine to me. I noticed pretty early on that the 2017 Blave icons were way too homogenous (can you tell the difference between Detective and Justice?) and that included race and gender. Unfortunately that spilled over when Shwartz and I were making new icons.


it is the same way with all the cops in dethy. They should have different eye/skin colors

I personally really like Avenger.


yes, but what do you think about our ethnically diverse recruit


blacksnakemoan says

Better icon for Recruit that is both brown AND a red head AND has sunnies let's do this:

marine
change soldier to this
sailor

they can be interchangeable variants. Like in a setup with multiple soldiers, they can be like soldier, sailor, marine, or airman (don't have one yet)


lucid please fix the theme colors of soldier. It feels weird to have it be gray, it should honestly be more green/camo so it could 1.) Be more accurate, and 2.) Not be confused with associate.


I guess you can add it to suggested icons but I personally think soldier's icon is fine.

Whistleblower on the other hand doesn't look like mafia at all : p

Yeah recruit isn't meant to side with the mafia until he finds the mafia

edit: i guess it'd be comparable to yakuza changing someone's role, except this guy changes it when he finds maf.

Oh are recruits treated like traitors?

4p setup with blue + vig + mafia + recruit, daystart. https://epicmafia.com/game/6773542/review

Day 1: everyone no lynches.

Night 1: mafia wins instantly because there's 2 of them, but recruit doesn't get chance to visit.

A lot of these roles seem not very thought out. Like, granted, not every role to be added ever was, but this latest batch feels... particularly lazy. Like someone dredged up a hat full of mediocre user submitted roles then picked out a dozen at random.


you should submit one!


I got one role made, and to this day people still complain about it. Honestly I think there should be a better system for this than just shouting in a forum thread. The older system of proposing roles and people voting at least had a sense of order to it. Each role got its own commentary rather than a clusterfuck of a thread.

@Pinks You misunderstood, it actually works differently, it's chosen in the morning for the person to rb at the night, and differently from the snowman she cannot clear herself at the morning because of this.

lucid remove your caps filter or make it optional or adjust it so it doesnt destroy natural in-game reactions. you're messing up the gameplay with this feature.

Gunslinger and Sharpshooter should have the same dodge message so you can have them in game together and not automatically know which is town/maf. That, or it could randomly generate between the two.

@lucaskart Waitress already exists in the form of Snowman :)
