Role: Plague Bringer

[Beuzmoker]

Hi

Role name: Plague Bringer
Description: You are a mad scientist who want to cleans all the town by the plague.
Alignment: Neutral Evil/Killing

Abilities: Infect your target at night, the target will die the next night.
The people the target visits, while infected, will become infected.
Doctor can heal and don't spread the plague.
Plague Bringer is immune to the plague.
Witch Doctor convert her target if she is infected.

Win Condition: Be the last person left alive.

Sheriff: Plague Bringer if the Sheriff option is On ; else Not Suspicious.)

Investigator: You discover a number of sharp tools and implements, suggesting that your target is either a Doctor or a Witch, or if you're unlucky, a Witch Doctor or a Plague Bringer.

Host Options:
1) Ignores immunity - (Default: On)
2) Ignores healing - (Default: Off)
3) Doctor who target the Plague Bringer role-block him - (Default: On)
4) Targets are informed that they are infected - (Default: Off)
5) 1 night between infection - (Default: On)
6) 2 night between infection - (Default: Off)
7) Invulnerable at night - (Default: On)
8 ) Infect Role-blocker - (Default: On)
9) Win ties over Arsonist - (Default: Off)

Pros:
- Balanced in my opinion. He is slower than every other Neutral Killing role if he targets a role that can not visits and Doctor got two nights to heal an infected target, but if the Plague spreads the town can die really fast, but can still be stoped or slowed if Doctor heal dead infected targets' targets.
- Doctor is the counter of Plague Bringer which is Role-Play :P

Cons:
- Maybe make the Doctor too strong

Overall effect on the metagame if implemented:
- Make Doctor and Witch Doctor more entertaining to play.
- A fun mixture of Arsonist and Mass Murderer.

Additional comments:
- A infected Mafia member or a
eEvildoer even if he dies can intentionally visit a town member to infect him and hope to be healed.
- A infected Town member will put his target in his last will, so the Doctor can heal the Plague from them.
- Doctor have to be very carefull if someone die from plague, and try to stop or slow it as soon as possible.
- Plague Bringer should infect role that can visit, or he will be slower than other Neutral Killing but he is faster if the Plague spreads.

sounds like an really op role would love to play as this lol

Might be balanced a bit better if he had limited plaguings or could only plague every couple of nights.

Why limited plaguings ? Does Arsonist or Serial Killer got limited douse and kill ?
He must wait 1 night between each attack.

because if docs either rage quit or are afk or heal wrong person the entire town will be engulfed in a matter of nights its way more op than arson could ever be

[UltimaNecros]

Limited plauges is balanced because IT SPREADS so theoretically you can hit Like an mm, also it should leave the plauge in their house so they dont get infected until the night ends (doctors cleans the vials)
Oh and if a doc heals Plauger he should lose one of his plauges or get a extra day added to next wait period along with roleblock but to doc its just a plauge cleaning message

If docs ragequit or afk, this isn't a balance problem. If they heal the wrong, they are maybe just not enough smart.

In a standard save 9-3-3 like :
Doctor (x2)
Sheriff (x2)
Jailor
Investigator
Citizen
Crier
Veteran
Godfather
Framer
Consigliere
Plague Bringer
Suvivor
Witch Doctor

7/14 of them can spread the plague.
So in the case that you target one the first group which the probability is 1/2. So if there is one night between, you'll do approximately equal kill than a Serial Killer with a one night offset.
Plague bringer :
N1) you target one who can visits we'll name T1 - D2) no kill - N2) T1 targets T2 - D3) T1 dies and put in his last will that he visits T2 last night - N3) So a doctor heals T2 ; you target T3 - D4) no kill - N4) T3 visits T4 - D5) T3 dies and put in his last will that he visits T4 last night - N5) So a doctor heals T4 ; you target T5 - D6) no kill...

I exclude random heal who are way more effective against Plague Bringer than against Serial Killer. Notice that he targets only role that can visit and spread which is pretty lucky since overall half role can spread plague.
In 5 days, you killed 2 people with a smart town without lucky heal ; while still without lucky random heal Serial Killer can kill 4 people. Of course if plague spreads, your kill/night can be highter than a Serial Killer.

The thing I want to explain you is that Plague Bringer is very weak if plague doesn't spread compare to other Neutral Killing and if you put a limited plagues, it will be impossible to win.
