You know what, I think we should have a complete seperate thread devoted to the different Gifteds/Cursed we could come up with for a game. What do you think?? But I guess that this thread kind of does it...even though we've wandered very far off track of what the thread originally started out as.

Actually, the current track is where I want it, if you can kindly suffer a certain sense of proprietorship in me...

Oh I can and I also kind of figured that's what you were doing. But wouldn't it be a good idea to have a thread devoted solely to what different roles we can??

If you like, although it seems like a redundancy to me.

What you guys need is for Fordim to create a poll.

All of the ideas seem intriguing, some better than others. The dueling wizards would certainly tax a moderator. The theif role could be tweaked. I'm not sure what my favorite is (including the many I didn't mention) but I'll think about it.

So far the different roles I've seen in games are the Apprentice (Takes the place of the first gifted that dies) and the Fool (Someone who falsely believes he/she is the Seer).

The Apprentice worked out well, I liked that one. The False Seer failed mainly because the crafty wolves took out the True Seer on the first day.

I was thinking of a sort of Were Bear that is randomly assigned an innocent or evil role for the day based on, perhaps, the coin flip of the moderator. One day he/she kills while the other days he/she is an innocent.
I tend to appreciate evil roles the most.

As for a new thread, I think this one suffices.

The main thing that most Downers would appreciate are roles that don't cancel out the standard roles, some people tire of being an ordo all of the time. I like the roles that are subtle and don't eliminate other gifteds/villlians.

I'm going to have 2 sub-moderators when I moderate my dueling wizards game. They're already lined up.

I'm interested. What about the werebear killing werewolves instead of innocents? Of course, only if s/he picks one, not knowing what the role is...
