Mafia! Mafia! Mafia! Character Role Discussions

[Detective Tommy]

Ah, I intended for her to have "Eagle Eye" instead of "SOS"

What is Eagle Eye? The exact same abilities - just a different name?

[Edogawa4869]

Oh, instead of.  Ok, I think that'll work.  Also, do you have a better name for Eagle Eye?

BTW, how often do snipings happen?

@DT: *Eagle Eye
Role with that action: Kir/Hidemi
-Whenever a sniping takes place, Kir recieves a note telling her the identity of the character who sniped the victim.

Every BO has to kill at least once before another BO can kill.
So sniping will probably happen after everyone else kills first.



Also, if Akonyl creates the serial killer role. Then Kir's Eagle Eye ability MIGHT have some... weakness.

You're right.  I didn't think about that.  It doesn't look too good for Eagle Eye...  Perhaps it would be better to have SOS...

That's only if Akonyl actually creates his role...

Numabuchi Kichiro (or whatever his name is)
Serial Killer
-Numabuchi is omitted from the "BO must share kills" rule. Thus, he can kill every single night, never kill or any amount of times, no matter how many times other members have killed people.
Day Action: Hide

Hide:
-Numabuchi goes into hiding for the day phase it's used on, and the following night phase.
-While hiding, Numabuchi can have no actions done to him (treated as discombobulated), and can perform no actions.
-Hiding precedes arresting, so that if someone attempts to arrest him on the same day he hides, the arrest will fail.
-Special case: if numabuchi is lynched, he won't be able to hide
-Hide can only be done X times per game?

I thought that they had decided to get rid of Hide...

Which of the two do you think would be better?  SOS or Eagle Eye?

SOS - since it actually gives away hints about a player (not the role).
But depending on her other abilities/rules, it might overpower her.

Which of the two do you think would be better?  SOS or Eagle Eye?

SOS - since it actually gives away hints about a player (not the role).
But depending on her other abilities/rules, it might overpower her.

Hmm, seems like Abs. went to sleep...

Well, don't forget that she has no info about the BO.  The only thing she has going for her would be a Contact and a clue left to someone else about the player who killed her.  Other than that, she has no other way to hinder the BO.

Are you sure it's overpowering?

[Abs.]

The BO often uses snipers during the 1st Night, in order to avoid giving a BO away too early due to a Sonoko or a protector.

Remember that Sonoko has no abilities either, just a friend who she'll know the murderer of when they die (unless they were sniped).

[Edogawa4869]

Ok, so you'd prefer to use Eagle Eye (unless, of course, Numabuchi is ever sent into the game) instead of SOS?

Or the other way around?

It might not be overpowering.
But 3 abilities seem like a lot. xD

Ask for Abs./Akonyl's opinions.

[Detective Tommy]

Ok, so you'd prefer to use Eagle Eye (unless, of course, Numabuchi is ever sent into the game) instead of SOS?

I would rather have SOS.
But if Eagle Eye helps balance Kir's role then it's fine with me.

So would I.  Abs., any disagreements?

[Akonyl]

while I dunno about all the other abilities, I'll say I'm not a huge fan of it. The ability to effectively instantly get a BO whenever the sniper attacks someone, without having to specify someone to watch, is a little silly, imo.

If it was put in, I would suggest perhaps to make it an activated ability, where Kir must choose to "watch" 1-X people in a night, getting the result if they're killed.

Ok:

*Eagle Eye Watch
Role with that action: Kir/Hidemi
-Kir chooses 3 players to Watch over during the Night.
-If one of the three players is killed during the night, Kir learns the identity of the killer's character.
-Kir cannot get the result of a Sniped murder.

Which combination of Contact, SOS, and Watch would you see as the best fit for the game?
