New Role

[marinebase7]

So I have come up with a new role idea of a town drunk (not sure if something similar has been done already I'm new to forums). Basically the role is similar to that of a Jester except that the point of a town drunk is to get voted up to stand and be voted innocent to win the game (and not lynched). Any thoughts?

Sorry to break it to you, but that's not a very interesting role. You can simply claim town drunk, get voted up and voted innocent by everyone to win and then you can do whatever you want. No harm done to anyone in the process, so why wouldn't other players let you win?

Touche was just thinking about it. Thanks for input.

There would have to be some kind of risk to the town or to the Mafia if this were to happen properly. Like mafia would be forced to kill him the following night, thus saving any important town member that might have had revealed himself that day maybe. Something like that to benefit either him or the town from doing this successfully.

I dont like it just for the fact the Condition can be too easy or too hard depending on the set-up.

Just my 2 cents.

You could have him "Celebrate" with 2 random other players every night after he's voted innocent, roleblocking them. (if <2 other players with night actions alive, he fails to celebrate and suicides out of drunken grief?) It'd be a crapshoot to try and prevent mafia action.

My question would be what happens if this person manages to get put on the stand, voted innocent, then the mafia keeps him alive until ist comes to 3 maf v 2 town, they put him on the stand and vote guilty. Would he be considered a loss now?

[Raptorblaze]

Depends I guess, would the drunk be a town role or neutral? I guess he'd have to live.

Just make jester a variantable role(like being able to switch around his options)
