Lore:
Spoiler: The herbalist had a green thumb. Literally. She'd been born, with an ability considered dull by many. But she thought her skills were amazing. She had the uncanny ability to grow plants of all kinds at an extraordinary rate. She did not enjoy her abilities considered "dull" and "boring" but this was in fact a blessing, since it helped steer her away from being accused of witchcraft. Mind you, (she grumbled grudgingly) it didn't seem like the town could accuse anyone of witchcraft correctly now. The coven had attacked the village with extreme force, and none of the town's investigators could find them. She tried her best to protect her garden, and with a little persuasion, (and help from the escort) she could ask the town protectors to guard her garden. The crusader and bodyguard made sure the garden was safe. She was eternally grateful to them. But the coven caught up, and the bodyguard died in the progress. The herbalist was upset. But knew how to get justice. They had protected the plants, now it was time for the plants to repay the favour.
Thanks to 405UserNotAllowed For this great lore!

Can you give an Example of the Illusionist?

For the Herbalist its just an escort who gives powerful defense which I am guessing it is only for the night.

So all this is, is a Half Escort Half Crusader

Okay this is an illusionist example: (kinda simple)


N1: Illusionist warps reality at Citizens house to instead visit Consigliere.
Sheriff investigates Citizen but is redirected to Consigliere (gets maf result)


D2: Sheriff calls out Citizen, Citizen is lynched.



PS: totally reworked Herbalist

It redirects one player yes, but there is no notification. Mafia trans are intended to counter TP's and LO however this is supposed to fool them.

Edit: Trans swaps all visitors whereas this just redirects

I think this has too much going for it, being, from what I see, a hybrid BG/Curs-Arso. Maybe I'm wrong, but I don't see an attack stat to say otherwise, Also I'd change the second attribute to specify that the plants will counterattack an attacker. (Again this could be a misunderstanding.)

No problem, also you have a notification that the ensnared players will be attacked.
However, this means illusionist is a one way trans, and Herbalist would be pretty cool and balanced at that point.

Actually Herbalist is a straight up TP.
It's just a very different take on one.

Agreed on Illusionist.

Re: Illusionist (Mafia Support) and Herbalist (Town Protecti

I read the Illiusionist and I have no idea how it works. I tried to understand it like this: You choose a target, one visitor randomly visits another person apart from the person you visited? Is this correct?

Think of it like a one way trans that doesn't give notifs to the transd player, and can only have one redirected.

Both roles look promising. I have a couple questions.
First, for Illusionist, Ability says it redirects all visitors and Attributes says just one is redirected. From reading previous posts, I think it is just one person that is changed, and you just haven't updated? If that is the case, I think TS should be moved before TK. Being able to make a vigilante misfire to be less the point than an escort misblocking. It is meant to give the town faulty information, not directly kill town members.
For herbalist, how do its two abilities work together? Does it have a choice on any given night to either plant roots or protect, or can it do both? If someone is protected once, do the roots go away or do they stay? Because if they stay, the game could quickly become unwinnable against a town with two TPs. n1: no rooting. n2: root jailor. n3: root doctor. n4: doctor on herbalist, herbalist on both doc and jailor at once. I think replacing roots would be necessary, or the roots rotting after X nights or something.
My in-game name is usually Zach.
My Town Investigative idea: Detective
My Town Protective idea: Bomber
My Mafia Deception idea: Interceptor
My favorite roles are Transporter, Jailor, Serial Killer and Blackmailer.
My least favorite roles are Mafioso, Retributionist, Framer and Arsonist.
