Emergency Surgery (Dawn) - Heal and occupy target player that was attacked. This consumes an organ. Inf use

Dawn is a timeframe before the start of the day but after night where any players with Dawn abilities may act, usually on a known limited pool of players. In this instance, this role knows who was attacked and may choose one of them to heal, though this role does not know whether they were healed during the night or what role or faction they belong to.

Town Cycling Semi-Priest

Town Social

Oath of Protection (Passive) - At the start of each Day phase, you will learn the name of a different player that should not be eliminated today, or else you will stop learning names and will lose your ability to cast deciding votes.

Town wincon.

Explanation

I fakeclaimed being this role in Starcraft Overhaul as Town Jailkeeper, so I figured I’d write it down here. This is a -EV role, and this ability isn’t supposed to indicate the alignments of the players you see. On the other hand, this is your ability and it won’t stop you from winning the game, so if you’re losing hard you would expect it to help you with the names you see. This isn’t meant to be a confirmable role.

I think it’s a fun spin.

Lattice Mystic

Lattice Town Investigative

Call of the Struct (Passive) - At the start of the game, there are guarenteed to be at least 3 players with the Lattice Alignment. You know who they are.

Preordained (Day) - Choose a player.

  • If they neighbor two or more live Lattice Players, you learn how many night abilities they have, then may choose a corrosponding number. They will use that ability tonight, and you learn what ability that is.
  • If they neighbor one live Lattice player, they choose a night ability that they will take tonight, and you learn what it is.
  • If they neighbor no live Lattive players, they choose a night ability that they will take tonight.

Divinate (Night) - Choose a player and a role number. Each Lattice player learns whether they are that role number, are lower than that number, higher than that number, or if their role does not appear as a numbered role in the GI thread.

Defeat all members of the Informed Minority and any neutrals that directly oppose your win condition.
OR Defeat all members of non-Lattice factions and any neutrals that directly oppose your win condition

Lattice is a new faction type, who are strong in large numbers, and get much weaker as their members die. The game can end if all living players are Lattices and non-evil Neutrals, even if those Lattice players are of differing alignments. The game, in that instance, would be a Lattice victory.

Lattice players do not get their own factional chat or kill, in the same way that town members don’t, though if a Lattice player is Mafia then they may utilize their factional kill for themselves.
