Sniper


You are aligned with the less numerous groupscum.
Each night, you may target a player and name another player. You will attempt to kill your target, but you will fail unless they target the named player with an action.

Prophet (alignment up to mod discretion)


Pregame and each night, you get a Rolecop, Gunsmith, Neapolitan or TrafficAnalyst result (chosen at random) about a random player other than you. This is a passive effect and does not target.

Lens
(alignment up to mod discretion)

Alien one-shot retrocausal Vanillizer


Each night after the first, but only once during the game, you may target a player. Assuming no interference with your action, that played was Vanillized during the
previous night
. If this would cause dead players not to have died, those players remain dead instead. If this would cause a paradox -- most likely because you would not be alive this night --, this action has no effect.

A (likely non-exaustive) list of odd things that may happen: this may cause players to die that didn't; for instance, if a Doctor that protected a player from a kill is retrocausally vanillized. This may cause players to receive results that didn't; for instance, if a Roleblocker that targeted a Cop is retrocausally vanillized. This may cause a nolim to be retroactively turned into an execution; for instance if the last Day ended with the leading wagon one vote short, it was on evens, and one of the players off-wagon retrocausally died.

Mystery Developer
(alignment up to mod disretion)

You are charged with a mysterious energy.

Each night, you may target a player. If that player has a nonfactional passive ability, for the rest of the game all players charged with mysterious energy also have the same passive ability.

Each night, you may also target another player. That player becomes charged with mysterious energy.

Mysterious energy is mysterious, it will have a subtle effect. Mysterious energy is a lingering effect that lasts indefinitely. Mod Discretion applies on mysterious energy's effect.

Mafia one-hit night Governor


Each night, you may target a player. If that player would be eliminated the next day, instead they aren't. You can only use this ability if you haven't yet prevented any elimination with it.

Edit: see #11479

Venom Cultist


Each Night, you may target a player, thus poisoning them. Poisoned players will die during the next Night, but any Doctor can cure them. If they somehow survive, they are recruited in your cult.

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

Cult Viper


If this role is originally in the game, cultists aligned with you have no nonfactional recruit abilities. Instead, your cult has a factional Viper's bite ability: each Night, one player can be bitten, thus poisoning them; they will die at the end of the next Night. If they somehow survive the poisoning, they are recruited into your cult.

You and cultists aligned with you are immune from poison.

mafia curse word


on night one, you may select any word. anyone that uses that word (alternate spellings and typos do not count) will die immediately, with the flavor stating "{player} was {curse-word}ed."

you win with the mafias
Wouldn't selecting "vote" be pretty much auto-win if it happens that no non-mafia killing power exists? Since no elimination can ever happen again

Werewolf SecretVoter


Your regular elimination vote has weight zero, but it will be tracked in votecounts as normal. During the Day, you may submit a secret vote by PMing the mod (this secret vote can be changed at any time); this vote has weight one and will not be tracked in votecounts.

Werewolf Numerologist


Each Night, you may choose a nonnegative integer n not greater than 7. You will receive an integer number equal to the sum of the n-th powers of the post numbers in the GIM thread of the roles of the players that were alive at the beginning of the Night, plus a random integer from 0 to 2n.

You may not choose the same value for n twice.

Mafia Exponentializer


Target someone at night to exponentiate their role. Any effects with numbers in them are changed to the power of 2 of that number. (For instance, a 3-shot Doctor with two shots remaining would be affected by this role to become a 9-shot Doctor with 4 shots remaining. A Night 3 Cop would become a Night 9 Cop.)

Your target is aware of the exponentiation.
Would an exponentiated ParityCop need to target four players?

Scheming Wildcard


During pregame, you are informed of what other factions exist in the game, and you may vow your allegiance to one of them. If you do, you win if that faction wins; otherwise, you win if you are alive at the end of the game, and you win alone.

Once during the game, either during Night or Day, you may choose a faction and an ability among Doublevoter, Eliminationproof, and Vengeful. A random living member of the chosen faction, if one exists, will have the chosen ability until the end of the next phase, and you will gain a PT with that player.

odd-nights compulsive Gunbearer Traitor

You are part of the Mafia's faction, but your family doesn't know your identity. However, you know the identity of all non-Traitor mafiosi.

You don't have access to the factional PT. On even-numbered nights, you don't have access to the factional kill.
On odd-numbered nights, you have access to the factional kill, and you
must
use it (if another mafioso attempts to also use the factional kill, they will fail).

Plague Unctior


You are infected.

Whenever a player targets, or is targeted by, an infected player, that player becomes infected.

At the end of each Day, for each infected player other than you, there is a 25% chance that they recover from the infection, and a 25% chance that they die. A player that has recovered becomes immune and may not become infected again.

Each Day after the first, but no more than once during the game, you may target a player. This action has no effect of its own.

You win when all living players are infected or immune and you are still alive.
