Reroll for role. While you keep your below post restriction, your actions can't be blocked, and the results of any investigations you make cannot be falsified in any way.

You have a post restriction: you may only post in the thread when it's late at night (this is up to your personal discretion, but don't abuse it!), and at least 1 post every day must reference the fact that it's late and that you should really go to sleep. At the start of the game, let the mod know your time zone so that it is semi-enforcable.
I LOVE THIS. :lol:
Please include a role in your post , this thread is effectively a deck



Town Crazy Rural Neighbor

- unrecruitable
- cannot be part of any PTs
- will give positive results for any role that would show positive on a solo neighbor

Edit: missed the vt at the top oops

Hmm? You thought you will have different abilities than a Vanilla Townie? I'm afraid not. But at least you get this flavor text...

Town Flavor Enthusiast


Each night, target a player. You will learn what flavor text (text in italics) is included in their role PM.

I got this rare TCG card not because I want to use it in a deck, but because I like the flavor text!



Would the following formatting look better?

Mod Discretion The Circle

At the start of the game, the mod posts the following:

The CircleThe Circle is closing in.

Every time a player is prodded, the Circle gains 1 energy.
Whenever a day deadline has reached the halfway point, the Circle gains 1 energy for every player who is not currently voting someone.

If the Circle has accumulated at least 3 energy, any player may
CIRCLE:
someone who has caused the circle to gain energy (via inactivity). That player will unavoidably die, and the Circle will lose 3 energy.


If you die, the Circle ceases to function.

I like the idea mechanically but can you please explain the flavor? Like why is it called a circle? Oh, is this a reference to Battle Royale games?

Idk if it what Cook's was going for, but it does kind of very loosely remind of this movie (tvtropes link)

While you are alive, day talk is disabled. This takes precedence over the moderator's specific rules.

Mod Notes: If there is both an encryptor and decryptor in a setup, it is moderator-defined whether day talk is still enabled.

Mod Discretion Reroll Benefactor


At the start of the game the mod will post the following:

Reroll OpportunityA Reroll Benefactor has gifted the Town an exciting opportunity. Don't like your role? Simply post
REROLL:
in the game thread. I'll give you a new one at the next dawn. You can't have used any active abilities before that time, or the reroll will fail.

Offer good as long as the Reroll Benefactor is alive. One reroll per slot per game. No refunds.


If someone takes advantage of the offer, and the following requisites are met:
  1. They have not used any active abilities up to the end of the next night (such as Cop actions, factional kills, dayvig shots, etc.);
  2. They are alive at the end of the next night;
  3. You, the Reroll Benefactor, are alive at the end of the next night;
Then they will receive a new role PM, randed according to the setup's rules, that they must confirm. That is their new role for the rest of the game.

In addition, if anyone takes advantage of this offer successfully, you will receive an invention with the same name and alignment as their previous role, and a copy of their previous role's text. This invention also has the text "You may sacrifice this invention at any time to immediately change your alignment to match it. This invention's alignment otherwise does not affect you. If any of the invention's abilities are triggered, sacrifice it."

Vanilla Nowtie


You are a regular member of the Nowt.

The Nowt wins like the Town, but cannot win with the Town. Its members are uninformed of each other and do not get a factional PT with each other. If fewer than three members of the Nowt roll in a game, the mod must artificially increase this number to three.

A person who gets a package of pink explosives every other night


hi you are self aligned.

every other night starting on the first night, you receive a package of pink explosives. your role name totally doesnt hint at that.

you can give someone your package of pink explosives. they will not be informed of this. you can distribute as many of these as you want to different and in the sense of multitasking it will be considered a single action

if someone with your package dies, their role pm will be pink and you will receive remains of a package of pink explosives. two remains of a package of pink explosives will automatically be combined into a normal package of pink explosives.

once per game, instead of distributing a package of pink explosives, you may explode all of them. if everyone dies that night including or not including you, you win. otherwise, the ones caused by you flip pink and you leave the game in a loss.

mod note: hi mod this is the consequence of making a role in my bed





changed so less op

Black Lotus


Not a role card. Reroll for an actual role, but include the following in your setup generation:

The Black LotusRandomly give one player a Black Lotus. Tell them about it in a PM separate to their role PM. (It's an invention that has the text "Use this invention at any time to gain 3 mana of any one type of your choice. Alternatively, you can sell this invention to gain a 1-shot use of any role in the Grand Idea Mafia deck of your choice, or buy an Enchanted Fae Bauble with some unknown effect.")

Town Green Planeswalker

Health: 20
Speacial Abilities
:
1 town-colored mana: restore 10 health to target player
2 town-colored mana, tap: summom an 8/8 treant. You can use it to attack one player every day phase (but not on the day ohase it was summoned on)
You begin the game with one forest (able to generate 1 green mana for every day and night cycle).

Health: Vanilla Townies have a maximum of 10 health. Any other role that does not specify health would have health between 8 and 30, up to moderator's discretion and based on the role's power level (over 20 would be only bosses).
Any ability that refers to killing would instead work as "reduce that player's health by 12", and any ability that refers to kill protection would instead absorb or negate damage.



This absolutely sucks but I will work on it at some point.


Really loved the reroll benefactor though.
