So an SK that sides with the opposite faction of the first person he kills?

If he switches sides once his faction is wiped out, then he can only lose by getting killed, correct?

I'm interested in this role, but also a bit hesitant to see it implemented. Maybe that means it's a good idea? xD

or he could be a survivor with guns instead of vests.

I like that better. It should definitely be limited as far as number of kills goes - 2 kills default maybe? The first kill determines his side, and the second kill has to be strategically used in order to help his team win (and prevent his insta-death).

And I don't like the switching-sides thing; once he is on a side, he should stay there until the end of the game, and win or lose with that faction. That way, once he lands on a team, he's invested in it. If he can switch once his team is wiped out, he has no reason to care; if I played with switching, I would just reveal once my team started to lose and start voting with the opposing (e.g. winning) team.

[CyanBlade]

no, the way it works, either he is a survivor with guns OR he chooses a side, and he is neutral, not sided, he will die if he attacks an ally, but will still win if his allies lose, he just has to stay alive, and picking a side can help you do that

Eh. I like that a lot less. That just makes him an OP Survivor, and he would replace Survivor in the metagame. I'd rather he be a new role, not an upgraded version of an old one. x3

This role is sweet. Basically an SK with a purpose instead of hating everybody. This would definetly be a doable and skill-needed role.

[FalseTruth]

I see this role as a flippy floppy vigilante. This also means I think it is stupid.

This role seems cool, i wouldn't mind seeing this in the game but every mafia game should only allow one bounty hunter like the mayor and godfather.
