Excellent alternative to the usual SK/Arson neutral killer.

(x drained souls) 1 auto vest.



If the succubus gets night killed drained people die.






How does this work? So if she lives past Night 1, she basically has night immunity for the rest of the the game, as she will have a stockpile of passive vests. Also, if she is targeted and the vest gets taken away(she isn't dead yet), is the soul given back?

Also, OP. It's like making everyone you target a citizen.

Confirmed Sheriff you say? Confirmed BD you say? lool theyre all citizens now so theyll never find me...


How do you intend to balance this?

Why is that op? If an SK actually kills their targets they are gone. If the succubus visits you, you can still lynch people and you have a chance to get your abilities back.

Roles who can proof themselves shouldn't have much of a problem to realize it and a doctor could detect the siphilies and knows the target was drained.

Also you get a roleblock message so you can assume you got drained.

So the doc can give someone back their abilities by healing their syPhillies?

would be a possibility. lets just say the doctor is a detector for drained people.

I like some of the metagame implications, it's a bit like the Cult. Does the 'proved' Sheriff pretend he hasn't lost his abilities to push through a lynch on someone he believes to be scum? Is the player a Mafia member who just conveniently loses their abilities to further help the Town?
