Trauma Patient OVERHAUL (Town Support)

Postby VampireAcolyte » Tue Apr 12, 2022 6:22 pm

Oliy's idea, I'm posting this on their behalf.

This is a variation of the old Trauma Patient role that was scrapped from the Testing Grounds.

Role Name:
Trauma Patient

Alignment:
Town (Support)

Summary:
You were attacked by the Mafia but live to see another day.

Attack: None
Defense: None
Unique: Yes
Priority: 6 (Remembering)
Abilities:
You can remember a role from the graveyard at night.

Attributes:
The role you remember will have their wincon switched to the Town.
If you remember a role with a night chat, you will not have it.
You will appear as suspicious if your role is not detection immune.

Investigative Results:
Sheriff - You cannot find evidence of wrongdoing. Your target seems innocent.
Investigator - Your target works with dead bodies. They could be a Medium, Janitor, Retributionist, Necromancer, Trapper, or Trauma Patient.
Consigliere - Your target survived an attack and is still in recovery. They must be a Trauma Patient.

Notifications:
You have decided you were like the (role).
You have attempted to remember who you were!


Mechanics:(A more in-depth explanation of the role, with specific special interactions)
Spoiler: Remembering an evil role will give you their investigative results.
An Amnesiac has priority over you in any case.
You will not gain any defense attributes from a role you select.
You may not remember the roles "Vampire", "Pestilence", "Witch", "Coven Leader", "Jester", "Executioner", "Plaguebearer", or "Amnesiac".



Goal:
Lynch all criminals and evildoers.

Additional Information:
Unlike an Amnesiac, the Town will not be notified that you have remembered a role.
You will be promoted into a kill capable Mafia role if you choose to become one.
Killing as your new role will be no different then the regular kill, this means you killing as a Mafioso will still show the kill in red.
If you are hung, you will be seen as your new role with the Town's color.
You cannot inherit the Necronomicon.


Achievements:
[Win X games as Trauma Patient].
Clean - Remember that you were like a member of the Mafia.
Mythical - Remember that you were a member of the Coven.
Firebrand - Remember that you were like the Arsonist.

Lore:
TBA

wow what a good twist on the trauma patient concept (:

The main appeal of this one in case it isn't clear: You are a town role that can remember any role but keep the town win condition. Trauma Patient just kind of sits around for a bit so naturally if it just remembers a town role its influence throughout the game will be lower than the average town role. Since it has the option to choose more powerful roles now, it can have a greater influence as a whole. Since scum die late though, you have to decide if that risk/reward is worth it. It also gives the role a more unique experience than just becoming another town role, since now you can have a town role with the abilities of any role, from as useful as SK to as useless as Janitor. It's a concept with a lot of variability but ultimately I think it's balanced and interesting.

I actually kinda like this idea, Town consigilere sounds pretty poggers. Ohh imagine being a town PM that would also make me happy. town arsonist "FIREBRAND CONFIRMED FOR TOS"
It's kinda like reverse town traitor which is such a awesome concept. make that a thing.

all you need to do is rename the title "medium rework" and im on the hype train.

Also whats wrong with learning witch or CL?

i wouldn't even consider this close to being a med rework. this would be more of a ret rework if anything, but that's still stupid IMO

learning witch/CL would be OP, point-blank. being able to shove evils around with 0 way of being stopped (since witch is rb immune), PLUS being able to learn their role, would be way too powerful for a townie. every trp would wait until witch died to remember; it'd be the #1 play

A trauma patient gone Witch would be the most powerful town role in the game by a large margin, surpassing jailor by a VERY fair amount; Coven Leader is the same as Witch, except it also blocks the remembering of CL from the Coven which is an extra bite in the ass.
