Chandler (Town Power)

Postby ImposterK » Tue Oct 24, 2017 5:36 pm

Chandler (Town Power)

Unique
Attack: None
Defense: None
Priority: 3

Abilities:
-At night, choose someone to give them a candle.
-During the day, choose 2 people with candles to meet at night where they can speak privately.
-You can keep a candle for yourself once.

Attributes:
-Your targets can anonymously speak with each other at night.
-Roles with a night chat can see both chats and will have the option to switch between which chat they're speaking in.

Difference between this and the TG Psychic:
The TG Psychic creates night chats every night, while this role creates night chats every other night. However, you do not have to form a connection every other night and can stack up connections.

Investigative Results:
Investigator: Your target leads the town, they must be the Mayor, Jailor, Retributionist, or Chandler.
Consigliere: Your target secretly allows the townsfolk to meet up. They must be the Chandler.

The point of the Town Power suggestion is to reduce excessively powerful roles, not make more of them

Well, the Psychic (not the one in-game, the telepathic one) is currently in TG, which means they thought it was a good idea. I always thought that it was a bit overpowered to give Townies a night-chat every night, and this nerfs it. I think it's pretty balanced.

prevents faction with night chat (mafia/coven) from talking and strategizing) since if you talk in chat the person with candle will see it and give away your mafia or coven

this is one the reasons spy was reworked messing with faction night chat is bad

also this role can confirm itself

night isnt very useful by itself it just private whispering i fail to see the power of it besides the two points i mentioned above

I don't see town night chat ever working

Should there be a way to switch in-between the night chats if they have one? Keep in mind that this is in the Town Power alignment, which confirms itself. The Blackmailer is a big reason that the Town does not whisper, which this can help.

if this role is appearing over jailor and retribunist i feel bad for town cause its too weak

this role would greatly nerf towns win rate (if town power were to ever exist which it doesn't right now)

Should the Chandler be able to see the chat between the 2 players?

I just don't think Town needs a role like this. Also, Blackmailer needs to lose whisper-reading abilities, and if Town wants to speak privately, that should be the best they get.
