Wow, F11 is as bad as pie.

You are a

Slowpoke

. Your vote counts for the next day and you can't change your vote until after after a lynch.

That already exists as a worst role.

Don't know if this variant has been done before, but...

You are a

Hypnotist

. Once per night, you may send me the name of one person you wish to hypnotize. That person will not know you targeted them. You will give them a hypnotic command to kill the rest of the town. Once you plus the amount of people you have under your control equals half the remaining players, you will give the kill command and win.

It's a cult, but with a twist that if you get recruited, you don't know it and your alignment doesn't change.

Possible use in nightless games and/or mafialess minis or a large game.

Seems a bit too strong, since you only find out when it's too late.

More or less strictly inferior to a normal cult. I hate all forms of cult though.

I thought that most people hated cults because the recruited switch their alignment. In this variation, that doesn't happen, which makes it much harder for the hypnotist (cult leader) to win.

LOLwut? How does this not switch (add to) your Win Condition?

How does it?

It's like there's a mod note wincon for you: "If a group you don't know exist, or even that you're part of (and you are part of it) gains controlling majority in a game, you win!"

Apart from the fact that you lose?

You are a threat to the town in the normal sense of a town wincon; so ideally you should be trying to lynch yourself with your standard (believed accurate) town wincon. However, your wincon changed because you're now part of the threat to the town; and you don't want to yourself lynched, as well as an unknown number of unknown players.

Do you think Poison changes you Win Con?

Changing wincon without notification is lying to the player AT A BARE MINIMUM.

But the Win Con doesn't change apart from in some philosical way.

You are the Cop Who Turns a Blind Eye. As an officer of the law its your job and your privilige to be able to work out who's town and who's scum. As a selfish individual you don't want to be a target. Each night you may attempt to investigate a player, if you would get town then you get "Town". If you would get scum then instead you get "No Result"

You win if all anti-town factions are dead and at least one member of the town remains.

You are a Framed Cop. Eah night you may target a player and will get one of two results: Mafia or Not Mafia. From the night after that then your target will investigate as a member of the Mafia. You win with the town.

You are a Wine Taster. Eah night you may target a player and will get the result of either Red, White or Sparkling based on whether or not that player is Mafia, Town or Third Party. You win with the town.

They're both partial roleblocks.

Personally, I'd find the role rather swingy in anything but an all-PR game. It's borderline godlike.

Really? Its stronger than Miller Roleblocker but its weaker (I'd say) than the high level investigative roles.

You are a

Mafia Briber

. Once per night, you can target 1 other player. Your role will be revealed to that player. Also, that player is not allowed to vote you for 2 days, and the Mafia is not allowed to kill that player next night. You win with the mafia.

Really really wrong thread.

You are

Action Swapper

Each night, you can pick two people other than yourself. Those two people will have the night actions swapped around.

Example:
Person A is a Doctor attempting to protect Person C and Person B is a Mafia Scum performing a kill on Person D. If the Role Change decides to pick Person A and Person B then their night actions will be swapped making Person A kill Person C and Person B protect Person D.

a bit late...

You read that wrong.

Survivors should still go in the other thread (better that ambigious post restrictions though so its progress.)
