Some roles I've made that are simply :

: Like a normal Doctor... but unknowingly kills a random player each night, and shows up as a Serial Killer to all inspections.
: Dies if targeted by any night action.
: Gets sane results... and unknowingly kills the target.
: Kills a specific player night 1.
: Kills night 1.
: Gets a new role, possibly with a new win condition, every morning. (The more weird options there are, the better.)

Some that aren't that bad, but can be confusing:

: Any player who targets the Green Goo with a night action becomes Green Goo themselves. The first Goo is a survivor (neutral); players infected by the goo may or may not become survivors.
: Tracks the same player each night... but doesn't know which player it is.
: Becomes a Werewolf Hunter when the first werewolf shows up dead. (May or may not be used in a game with werewolves.)
: The first time the Reincarnator dies, it comes back to life... but gets a new role, possibly with a different win condition.

And one that isn't bad or confusing, but has an amusing tendency to backfire if claimed:

: Starts the game knowing how many cops there are and what their sanities are, but not which players are cops.

Xyl, you should mod a large game. And by large, I mean, like, 50 roles.

Chainsaw, anyone? [/ircjoke]

I like the Police Chief.

: can't vote for anyone who has voted for him in a given day. Is immune to doctor protection. Like a miller, a sane cop investigation will declare him "guilty". Wins with the town.

I'm nowhere near being able to mod here.

But I am available for consultations.

You are . Each night, you may name a target. If that target votes for you at any time during the next day, he will die during twilight.

You must claim Survivor Jester on page 1. You may not clarify, or you will be modkilled. Exception: if anyone tries to make out that you weren't being serious, you must restate your claim. Anyone who asks for clarification about your role will be modkilled. You win if the game survives past day 1, unless you are modkilled (automatic loss).

That's not a bad role, asides from the fact it is quite powerful.

Depends what roles you have!

You are the Labyrinth.

Players who target you at night have their nightchoices cancelled and are automatically moved out of the primary game into a secret subgame.

If you are to be lynched, instead your lynch is cancelled and all players voting you are immediately moved into the subgame.

You mod the subgame with the alternative account "Mystery Moderator Number Three"

You win if all players are in the subgame.

You lose if the players in the subgame lynch you.

You are the .

Once per night, you can target one player, living or dead, and they will be removed from the game. They won't die, they'll be completely removed from the game. All their posts will be deleted, anything concerning them in other players posts will be deleted, all their nightchoices and votes will be cancelled and events will be edited accordingly, their name will be completely removed from the playerlist, and anyone who targetted them or voted for them will die.

It will be as though they never existed.

Win Condition: When you are the only player.

Oooo, I like that. Retconning night choice and whatnot may be too much of a pain... but change it to just, say, or : target a dead player, remove all their posts from the thread... or target a single post by a live player, remove it from the thread...

The ability to delete a single post is so lame it is killing me!

How about an open setup lyncher where, if he wins, the whole thread is deleted? Raises the importance of not lynching the target, since loss means depriving posterity of the ability to read the game.

Strangly enough, Xylthixlm, I've actually seen the "green goo" role before.

Did I ever tell you how much I hate the killer cop? I'm still pissed.

(Still holding back the X-Hider Kill Magnet though for another game.)

And if you want to create a setup, I'd be willing to run it depending on how long it takes for one of my other Mars games to finish.

My twisted creations have escaped IRC and are showing up in other games? .

Ah, that game. The list was taken from the IRC bot, so most of the weirder roles in it are my creations.

You re [n]M.C.Hammer[/b]. You may only vote if your vote would be the one that causes a lynch. However, since nobody can touch you, you cannot be targetted at night. You're also broke and wear rediculous pants, so nobody wants to be associated with you. If another group tries to recruit you, they'll think better of it at the last minute.

Hmm...

You are a chaos-demon possessed townie. Each night, the demon will kill you and find a new host. If you are lynched during the day, the demon dies, too (can't stand the sun). You win with the town.

(Mod finds a new Player to take over the role each day, right out of the queue.)

Would probably lead to apathy. Might be tweakable into something useful.

Congratulations! You are (because I like this spelling better) and you just got married! Such a joyous occasion! Such a beautiful bride. Unfortunately, you married me, the mod. And I'm a misogynist. I have no qualms about killing you if you displease me. If you want to be a good wife (and stay alive), well, you have to make sure I'm happy. That means that when ever another one of my pesky subjects asks me for something, you should take care of it, if you plan on staying mistress of this house. If I have to do any work myself, other then writing night scenes (I like those, and besides you women are too inferior to write a quality night scene), you shall die. If you fail to keep me amused, you shall die. If I see that a majority of my subjects, at one time or another, want you dead, you shall die. (On my scorecard, votes for you are cumulative from one day to the next, and unvoting doesn't erase them. A good ruler needs a beloved queen, does he not?). If you try to curry favourtism among my subjects by claiming your role or role conditions, you shall die. If you fail to keep me entertained, you shall die. If you disappear from the thread for more than 2 days, you shall die. Oh, and have I mentioned that you're a .

Mod note: this is a totally bastard-mod role that I might use in the future. If I feel like being less bastardy, I might make a few slight changes. This role is also contagious. If Scheherazade dies, a new player will be randomly assigned the role of Scheherazade, because what kind of sultan doesn't have a wife?

You are . Once each day you may post in thread that a player has a wildly complicated and imaginative role, and as a result of your post, that player will magically gain that role.

If you ever succumb to writer's block, you will be mod-killed. You win with town.

You Each night, you may choose to throw a stone at another player; if you do, they will be killed, but the fact you threw the stone will be public knowledge. On the bright side, anyone who targets you at night will also be 'outed' publicly. Don't get changed with the lights on. You win with the town.

Yeah, a lot of mainstream roles have unknown origins since we can't be sure which came first- xyl's brain or another game in question.

But the amount of roles Xyl/fade have made is creepy.
