Role Idea: Cannibal (Neutral)

[oops_ur_dead]

The Cannibal simultaneously kills and "cleans up" (like a Janitor) one target per night. Unlike the Serial Killer, the Cannibal's kill has to be successful (ie not healed or roleblocked). If the Cannibal's kill isn't successful, the Cannibal will die of starvation. When the Cannibal kills a target, they will have their target's investigative results for that night. For instance, the Cannibal kills a doctor, and gets targeted by Sherrif and Investigator that same night. The Sherrif will see the Cannibal as innocent, the Investigator will see "Your target has several knives". The Cannibal's only goal is to stay alive.

if the cannibal's only role is to stay alive then they can just claim canibal not going to kill, unless you have to kill someone to stay alive and not just failing to kill will kill you?

I like the twist that you have to kill people to stay alive.

1) Seems impossible to win with this role.
2) Would hurt the town greatly if included in a setup.
3) Would make mafia unnecessarily complicated.

Needless to say, I dislike this idea.

I like this idea it's kinda like a serial killer but with a blend of potential of starvation and erasing. @FalseTruth i don't think it'll be harder to win with this role as docs generally aren't that smart... and maybe to help boost it's ability add that it can ignore night invulnerability (ie gf and sk)?

Looks like a pretty good role, however i think the cannibal should die if he fails for 2 nights instead of one.

[oops_ur_dead]

Maybe he gets a set amount of "grace" nights, set as a host option. So if the Cannibal has some grace nights, and they don't kill someone one night, then their grace night count will go down, and if they have 0 grace nights and they don't kill someone they die.

We were almost on the same wavelength with this but I like mine better haha: http://www.thecouncilofmages.com/forum/index.php/topic,583.0.html

I actually really Dig this role, its a nice well thought out idea! And I like the thought of it starving to death in a Jail cell or something :P

No grace nights! High-risk; High-reward role!
