Re: Syndicate's Grand Idea Thread

Mafia Shapeshifter

At night, you may shape shift into a gun and send yourself out to a target. The target will be informed that they received a gun that they can shoot during the day with a 50% chance of revealing their identity (not that you are the gun itself), and then they get a neighborhood chat with you. You may not claim the true identity of the gun to anyone or how the gun really works.

When the gun owner attempts to shoot with gun-you, you may post a message through the host in flavor, framing the shooter as selecting a different target, then a target of your choice is shot instead. Then your target will get immunity to that day's yeet without being made aware of it. Then at the beginning of the following night they lose the gun (you) but you both keep the neighborhood.
(You must proxy a target in advance, and may optionally proxy a message in advance. If carnage is offline when the gun-holder attempts to use the gun, then the pre-determined target and message will be used. If you are online, then the host will give you the option to choose the message and target at that time).

3P, The Inverter

The inverter is a solo third party with the ability to passively manipulate votes during the day if they were visited the previous night.

When your vote manipulation activates you become immune to day kills and every vote against you will count as if you were voting against them instead, creating vanity wagons out of nowhere. However, every self vote from another player will count as they voting you instead!

You win and leave the game when you have created more than four vanity wagons two days in a row or if you are one of the last two players alive.

On odd nights you redirect kills to another random player.
On even nights you are immune to protections.

Re: Syndicate's Grand Idea Thread

Galaxian Terraformer

Galaxians are neutral entities that are part of the game but do not qualify as players due to not having a wincon. Being a Galaxian allows you to alter the game flow imposing conditions, challenges, curses and blessings on ALL players.
For all intents and purposes, Galaxians are not part of the player list, they do not post to the thread, they cannot vote but they can influence the game in the shadows (Galaxians share a PT with the game mods). In other words Galaxians sacrifice playing the game to influence it with Mod-Permitted destiny actions.

This Galaxian is the “Terraformer” who during pre-game and every night may alter the conditions of the game, unlocking and disabling new types of abilities for players to adapt and win under the new conditions.

World Of Water
Spoiler: show
Image

Upon submitting the "World of Water" action, you disable mechanics and roles that deal with fire. You also cleanse every player from negative statuses and modifiers, including passive ones that the players started with.
In addition, if roles are not suited to explore water worlds, their actions are delayed one cycle.

Electricity roles are immune to this effect.

The host will post the "World of Water" artwork to the thread along with the changes.
World of Fire
Spoiler: show
Image

Upon submitting “World of Fire”, you disable all mechanics and actions that deal with plants, animals and micro organisms. It also enhances mechanics and actions that deal with fire, such enhancements are up to the moderator discretion. The “World of Fire” automatically kills anyone that has been doused with a flammable liquid.

Water roles are immune to this effect.

The host will post the "World of Fire" artwork to the thread along with the changes.
World of Wind and Gasses
Spoiler: show
Image

Upon submitting “World of Wind and Gasses”, you disable all mechanics and roles that deal with Stone and Soil. It enhances wind related roles by placing their actions first in the night order of resolutions. Roles that are equipped with wings or turbines will be able to perform their actions on two targets at night.

Fire roles are immune to this effect.

The host will post the "World of Wind and Gasses" artwork to the thread along with the changes.
World of Thunder and Energy
Spoiler: show
Image

Upon submitting "World of Thunder and Energy", you disable all mechanics and roles that deal with water and enhances those that deal with electricity and energy (i.e. mysterious energy). Those that have been charged by electricity and energy will be immune to kills the following night and X-Shot roles are recharged with one extra shot.

Stone and Soil roles are immune to these effects.

The host will post the "World of Thunder and Energy" artwork to the thread along with the changes.
World of Stone and Soil
Spoiler: show
Image

Upon submitting “World of Stone and Soil”, you disable all mechanics and roles that deal with Water. It enhances and unlocks actions that deal with plants, animals and micro organisms (enhancements up to the moderator discretion). Roles that are not equipped with wings or turbines will be immune to roleblocks and redirections the following night.

Gravity roles are immune to this effect.

Immeasurably Reckless Townie With A Secret Stash Of Toys

You possess the following inventions. You may only use/give one each night. You cannot both use an ability and give an invention on a single night. Unless otherwise specified, you have a choice of either using a particular invention or giving that invention to someone else. Once you use an invention, you can no longer give that particular invention away.

a) 1-Shot M61 Vulcan: Once per game, you may target a player. You will attempt to shoot the player. Your shot is bulletproof piercing, going through any and all protections. If the target is visited by anyone else, you'll vanillalize them for the rest of the game.

b) 1-Shot Night Vision Goggles: Once per game, you may target a player. You will attempt to watch and track that player ignoring undetectable statuses that they may have.
You neighborize whoever visits your target, making a chat with them with day and night talk. You investigate whoever your target visits and find out if they have any modifiers on them and which ones.

c) 2-Shot Bomb Detector: At night, you may target a player. You will attempt to detect whether it carries bomb items or if they have bomb related roles and how many (Items or shots). Then the following day you may trigger those bombs killing their carriers.

d) 1-Shot Nikita: At night, you may self target. If someone visits you the Nikita will lock and shoot its missile to them, killing them and two more targets sharing a PT with them (Scum chats, Neighborhoods, Mason chats, Cult Chats etc). If you use this shot and nobody visits you, you will lose it regardless.

Your role will not reveal when you die and instead be left as a blank role pm.

If you die while this action is activated, you become a Vengeful spirit. You cannot be resurrected or interacted with in any way. This will not work if you die from an elimination (yeet).

x3 Penance Stare
At night and while you are alive, you must target a player to visit and mark them. The target will receive this image.
► Show Spoiler
x3 Tombstone Maker
At night you may target a player. The following day a "Tombstone" with an "Epitaph" wriiten by you in flavor will be posted with the targets name on it.
When you die, these targets will die with you and sent straight to Hell, a place where the dead cannot be interacted with, where you'll also live.

These are your post mortem actions if you die as Blaze. You can use multiple actions per night and you don't have to cycle through them BUT you may not holster them.

x3 Vengeful Spirit
After you die, you'll learn that you are able to kill a player each night phase if a townie was eliminated the previous day. Just select a player's name, and that player will die granted nothing is able to save them each night. You will not be allowed to join any graveyard chats until the game approaches less than 9 players alive. Then you are no longer able to shoot, and join graveyard chat with everyone else. These kills will be independently announced from the standard night results.

x3 Penance Scare
At night, you may target the marked players with the Penance stare, to send them horrific visions about their death.
These visions must be written or designed in flavor and you must not identify yourself.

x3 Hellspawn Commander
At night, you may command all those players in hell to target alive players, to show up in detection and investigation reports.

Re: Syndicate's Grand Idea Thread

Big Boss (independent)

You are immune to night kills attempted on you on night 1.

You can and must attempt to convert one player on night 1 and night 2 each.
(The first conversion commutes the target for the night, preventing any kills on the target.)

Upon converting the first player you establish the FOX Operatives Faction and get a private night chat with them.

If your conversion target is mafia, you die.

Converts keep their abilities (if any)

At SoN3 you lose your converting powers and get “Capturing” powers with 100% attempt rate.

Capturing a player sends them to the “Brig”, a special jail where targets will remain until you either die or win the game. (The brig acts like a temporary DVC).

You can assign a capture action to one of your teammates.

Captures count as visits and work on both Town and Mafia.

If you die your faction does not dismantle and they must fulfill the same wincon as if you were still alive but all captured players will be released and the brig is deactivated.

You and your faction win by becoming 50% of the entire population.

You cannot win with any other faction. You MUST be the last person standing.
You possess the following abilities:

Paranoia Field
You can move this field around to a new target per night. That target will become paranoid, and can only use their abilities reflexively on other players. Otherwise, all actions fail.
Watchers will see "A strange light surrounds them".

You appear town-aligned to all investigates.

Trust no-one.
if someone attempts to roleblock you, they become subject to Paranoia Fields effect for the night and no longer target you.

Sylgar! <3
You cannot target any fish/dolphin based roles with your abilities.

In addition to the Paranoia field, you may target someone else with one of the following 1-shot abilities.
  1. Charm Ray. The target will compulsively sheep your vote silently. 1
  2. Paralyzing Ray. The target is roleblocked for this night phase and the next.
  3. Fear Ray. The target gains the Loud modifier for the night as they scream in fear.
  4. Slowing Ray. The target cannot multitask. All declared actions after the first will fail.
  5. Enervation Ray. The target is eliminated.
  6. Telekinetic Ray. The target is redirected to another player.
  7. Sleep Ray. The target is silenced (voteless) for the next day.
  8. Petrification Ray. The target is put into stasis. 2
  9. Disintegration Ray. The target is silently eliminated. (No flip or information, cannot be autopsyed/post-mortemed.)
  10. Death Ray. The target dies at the end of the second day phase from when this is used. The mod will announce the targetted player as looking drained of life at the start of the day phase.
1The player may vote as normal and it will be tracked, when Xanathar votes, the targetted players vote will move too.
2The player is considered dead for vote count purposes and may not vote. They are post restricted to 10 posts per day, with a maximum of 50 words per post and cannot vote. A doctor type protective visiting them will cure the petrification and restore them to life.

Town Batman

You have in your Bat-pocket two units of Kryptonite.

Batman is the world's best detective. Batman is protected against kills every night, unless they choose to use their ability to investigate someone's alignment.

Re: Syndicate's Grand Idea Thread

Town Job Poster

You start the game with 6 Bitcoin and gain 2 bit coin every start of day phase.

Three times per game, at the start of each day you may post to the thread anonymously through the host: Job Offer and description.

During the following night, whoever can do the job (independent contractor) will do so and submit the result anonymously through the host upon which the bitcoin amount you offered for the job will be deducted from your balance and added to the “independent contractor”.
I.e. You post through the host on Day 1:

Job Offer: Protect Player A tonight for $4 Bitcoins

Then Player B with a protection role decides to take the job and targets Player A to protect it.
If Player B successfully targeted Player A to protect it (it didnt get redirected to another target or role blocked), then the host will deduct $4 Bitcoins from Player A and credit it to Player B, regardless of whether or not Player A was targeted for a kill.

Do notice that any information that independent contractors were supposed to get with their actions if it was not a paid job, will only be disclosed to the Job Poster.

Re: Syndicate's Grand Idea Thread

Demon Guillotine

Demon is an alignment that can only win with groupscum aligned parties that share a PT and can only have passive/reflexive roles.

As long as you are alive, on odd days the hammer will die along with the player being eliminated.
When this happens, the mod will post to the thread "A head rolls unexpectedly".

You win with mafia

Re: Syndicate's Grand Idea Thread

Mafia Doppelganger

Once per game, you may target another player at any point in the game, replacing your role with a copy of their role. Your alignment remains the same. This role is revealed on death instead of the copied role.

Re: Syndicate's Grand Idea Thread

Town Grand Idea Inventor

Each night, you may submit to the moderator the post number of a role in the Syndicate’s Grand Idea thread as well as the name of a player in the game. You will attempt to give a copy of the role you selected to the player you selected. The host reserves the right to veto any role you submit and you cannot self-target. If a role must be vetoed, the host should to the best of their ability give the player a chance to select another role. Posts that are not actually roles (e.g.: things like "reroll", effects etc) may not be submitted. Please ask your host for the full list of restrictions and regulations on this role.

Town Stump-Doctor

At Night, you may target a player. If that player would have been killed that night, they will instead become a Treestump of their alignment.
