You are the
Prophet


You've come to herald a new age of peace, you must convince everyone
to live happily ever after


If you force the game into a draw situation(two cycles of nokill/nolynch) the game will be ended as a
and they lived happily ever after
situation and you will be the sole winner.

If any player dies for any reason, you lose.

If you get anything wrong, you will be modkilled.

The only problems I can see are the loopholes; I'd just write "At least one person died somehow".

you are
the schizo


your crazy delusional other side will take over posting for you on even days, on these days you may not post normally but must instead post whatever is sent to you by your crazy delusional alternate personality, he wins if you are lynched.

you win if you survive until endgame.

Hmmmm.... that gives me an idea for a legit role. What if two people secretly forced the other to post what they wanted, knowing that they're on opposite teams and more or less of equal utility. Naturally, they wouldn't be allowed to out each other or share their roles with the town. It would be interesting to see if they cooperated.

Everyday you must insult each player individually at least once (even the dead ones). You win with the town.

A lyncher whose target is an unlynchable townie.

Or a townie who is the target of all the other players, who are all lynchers.

there is a role that runs on the same [vaguely] parameters

ie: you have to do something different every day. essentially a pointless role.

ive used a role called
The Foreigner
in meatworld games

they must talk in a different accent each day. at nigh, the mod specifies the accent.

it woeks really well if you have someone good at it, and fortunately i did.

however, foreigener is not a viable role in online games :(

You are a
Power Ranger
. Each night you can choose a Zord to do a night action. Each Zord can do one of sane cop, insane cop, doc, roleblock, vig.

Each night I'll randomly order the five Zords; the first person with your role to submit a night choice will get the first Zord (and the corresponding power), the second person will get the second Zord and so on. If more than five people submit a night choice, only the first five will get a night choice.

You will not be informed of what Zord you got until the next morning. (Although, you may be able to deduce that you got a cop Zord.) Not all people with this role are guaranteed protown. There may be anywhere from 1 to 10 people with this role.
I replaced into Chess Mafia for 6 months, and all I got was a win and this lousy sig.

Thok, that would be the best power ranger mafia ever, where everyone has that role, and have a random power.

Fun for everyone, Flay. I just run them in between real games. They tend to be pretty short.

Ahh, yet more reasons I don't play scumchat games. Most of the (real) ones I've seen/run have been around 40 minutes/an hour.
