Old Maid: Every night, the old maid may switch roles with another player. Old Maid cannot win.
Gallis: Dies with the minority vote alongside the lynched. wins with village.
Trigger-Happy Cop: may visit someone each night. Receives a report on whether they can be killed at night or not. if they can, he will shoot them the next night.
Hated: requires one less vote to lynch. Wins when they are killed by anything that is not a lynch.
Little Boy:Mafia. May follow someone each night to receive any PM messages that are given to them. One other person will know who the little boy is, and they will not be mafia.
Village Idiot: When the Village idiot dies from being lynched, the mafia may kill two people that night. Wins with village.
Just because Beloved Princess is already a role doesn't mean it's not terrible, though.
Here's a role that's outright brokenly powerful, but looks absolutely awful for town:
You are a
Compulsive Gullible Day Vigilante
. You can kill one player in each day phase. If you do not attempt to use your daykill on any given day, you die. If you attempt to kill scum, your action fails. You win with the town.
(That said, "Gullible", which might do with a better name, is a modifier I'd like to see in more non-Worst roles. You can do a lot of interesting things with roles that don't work on scum.)
But it just confirms scum rather than killing them, so then they just get lynched immediately?
"i have the sickest grossest feeling that even if it's my lynch today, my townflip still won't lead to a tso lynch, and then he'll find some bullshit way to reason either shooting or lynching gm tomorrow because if there's anyone who can strongarm a mislynch despite his reads or cases being proved wrong time and again it's tso"

Um... What's the difference between Trigger-Happy Cop and a Delayed Vigilante?
.
You win alone. If you vote someone, they're automatically lynched. If someone votes you, you're automatically lynched.
Will always be NKd night 1 tbh

Wouldn't necessarily be OP as Mafia, because people would assume there was some sort of first-vote-wins mechanic and be spamming votes right as the thread was unlocked.
It'd be similar in impact to a 2-shot Mafia Vigilante, which is pretty powerful but not unbeatable if the setup is otherwise balanced around it.
Yes. Decide the win by coin flip. Would be more fair.

It basically makes the game into almost Double Day. You use the first shot as the lynch. If it goes through, oops you mislynched, but yay you get to lynch someone else now rather than the scum getting their NK. If it doesn't go through, you hit scum, and can proceed to lynch them properly.

But wouldn't just a standard daycop be better? Or a standard nightcop? Or a standard dayvig? Or a standard nightvig? (Well, actually standard nightvig would probably be worse)
It's good, but not outright brokenly powerful.
Who said that?
Chamber. It's all a conspiracy.
Or is it?

Standard daycop is one of the most brokenly powerful roles in existence. I agree that an unlimited-shot dayvig would be better, but how often do you see an unlimited-shot dayvig? (And nightcop is also better, I think, although it's not certain.)
That's not that bad. Just claim early d1, and claim your targets. If you're significantly better than the cop, it can even be helpful. If you're significantly worse, it can be annoying, but it won't be that bad.

. Each day, you may recruit one player into your cult and they will become your acolyte.
If there are less than
three
acolytes and you die, then the eldest living acolyte replaces you as the cult leader, inheriting every aspect of your role. (You will win if your replacement wins.)
If there are four or more acolytes and you die, then they all commit suicide and die with you, but
retain their original win condition
.
You have a one-shot bulletproof, which will be passed on until it is used. (This resolves instantaneously.)
You win if the cult at any time makes up 50% of the living players.
(I thought it was an interesting take on the cult--basically, it forces cult players in a small cult to remain loyal to their cult leader because they'll lose otherwise, but offers them a way out of the third party wincon after being recruited, if they sacrifice their life.)
You are 'Mastin 2', but this is a coverup, you are actually 'who', but that's a coverup as well, in truth you are 'callforjudgement' but that's also a duisguise. The thing is you are 'Soft-spoken' but this is to hide your true identity 'Jeanne11', which was born from 'who' again and.....2 hours of naming everyone on the site.
