As a matter of fact, I believe the game was called Lazy Mod Mafia.

The role ended up making two mafia famillies, an SK, a cult, a mason group, a doc, four cops of differant sanities, a vig.... you get the idea.

Here's another:
Another Bad Role wrote: You are the Masonic Lyncher-Jester. You are a mason with ______. He thinks you to be good. What he dosn't know is, you are anti-town. You win by getting him lynched and then being lynched yourself, or getting yourself lynched and getting him lynched. This Victory condition ends the game.
And both masons were given that role. :D
I have plenty of common sense. I just choose to ignore it.

Shakespeare (What a Tragedy!)

Unfortunately, your fate is not good.
Everything you write, be it a vote-
-Or something like a minor suspicion,
Must be written in the way of the good
Shakespeare: Iambic Pentameter! All
Things you type shall appear to readers in
Fourteen lines and a decasyllibic
Way! If you should fail to write like this, why
You shall surely perish in a grim way!
But don't worry, I will probably fail
To count your syllables carefully, so...
I guess it doesn't really matter, now?
But know this, if you post thrice every day
I will let you kill someone during night!

It's so fun making people do impossible tasks before they can be useful.

make it have to rhyme too.

i tried to do that once - iambic heptameter, not pentameter, rhyming, natural line breaks, and acting as a relevant narration of the events to date, mderating a game.

my english was, sadly, not good enough and i dumped the gimmick early on. :(

oh, and you want a bastard role? doctor variant, the person you protect each night is the person you were voting at the end of that day.
hey, a sig!

The Politician:

You have been elected to political office and have 2 votes. Your campaign however was financed by the mob, should they be found out and killed, you will lose, if your consitutents(the town) all perish, you will also lose. As a result, your goal is to stall the game in order to milk them for all they are worth. You win if the game lasts for a year in real life time and lose otherwise.

LOL! THESE ARE HILARIOUS! Rainbow Brite has some funny ones, mainly the one about killing everyone with a hat on, that made me fall over laughing.

How bout... uber townie? Unlimited day vigs that only work on scum, knows all roles, protects everyone each night if he posts once. Can't post at all.

I love the role cheese.

Once, I played a game where everyone was a one man scum machine, no nights. We killed someone and we all though we had won. Hilarious.

How bout - Role claimer: You win by claiming, you aren't allowed to claim anything.

JFK - Goes with two cops, both paranoid, and a tracker who thinks everyone targeted JFK. You win if you get a man on the moon by the end of the decade.
Meh... I got distracted by something shiny, leaving MS. Possibly returnage soonfuls.

A role to give to someone you don't like

You are the
Suicidal Survivor


You must claim scum on your first post, you can't claim anything else. You can only vote for yourself. Failure on these results in a modkill. All investigations on you turn up guilty. You refuse all doc protections.

You win if you are the last man standing.

You are the
Village idiot
.

You are so stupid, you can't win. At the end of the game you will be annouced as THE BIG LOSER and the mod will post something making fun of you and telling you what a pathetic player you are.

You are
God.


You can do anything: multiple votes, kill, doc, cop (you pick the sanity), etc. anytime you want, day or night, multiple times per day, you can PM anyone, anytime, you can't die, you've already won. Enjoy.

Funny, Village idiot is another name for jester and God is what most people call the moderator. God maybe should be juggernaut.

well, this isn't a bad idea, but I'll post it anyhow. (wouldn't want to start up a new thread or anything).

Mafia Bootlegger


you are the mafia bootlegger. Each night you may choose someone to liqour up. There is a 50% chance that their role (if any) will not work, and a 50% chance that they will target a random person.


It might have already existed, anyhow. I used it in Homer Mafia (as the Beer Baron), I think it is a good variation on mafia RB. they have a chance to mess with the town, but it could also backfire on the mafia.

8-legged potato


You are an impossible item, which means you defy the laws of physics. Using this, you can send someone to the 87'th dimension every day and night, and if you die, everyone sent to the 87'th dimension comes back.

You explode, killing a random person, if you don't vote for exactly 3 people every 2 days.

If you, a town, and a mafia member live, you and the mafia win. If you and a townperson are left, you both win. If everyone else is in another dimension, you lose.

This isn't a bad role, but I thought I'd put it here anyway:
You are the
Counter-Cultist
.

There is a cult in this game, and you know it. Each night, you may take two actions: You may choose one player to protect from recruitment into the cult, and view one player to see if they have been culted. If the cult tries to recruit you, the recruiter will die and all cultists will be restored to their original status.
