Juror
Alignment: Ideally Town, any possible.
Action: Target one person at night, placing an extra vote on them the following day. The vote is anonymous (placed by host on anonymous account) and cannot be changed until the following night. The Juror still has their regular day vote. The role effectively lowers a target's required vote count by 1.
Meta game implications: Juror would change the direction of day chat as people would want to discuss why the Juror (who would likely be Town) thinks their target is scummy. Juror would be very powerful in late game, making it a valuable target for Scum to seek out. Juror would be able to be spotted by players who initially support the anonymous vote at the beginning of game, forcing the Juror to either go against their vote or lead the questioning of the anonymous vote to lay low.
Mafia Juror is possible, but would be extremely OP in late game, causing a game to end earlier than anticipated.
Anti-Town Neutral would be an OK role, as it doesn't have a voting block to coordinate with for fast lynches.
