"What is Town of Salem", some may ask. It's basically a "Find and eliminate the mafia before the mafia kills the townies" game.

I will say this now, this is inspired by the users of @HorribleTomato and @MaskedNuisance , they have done this way better than I ever will.

Some basic terms to know. After we play multiple games, I can introduce the advanced terms.

Attack/Defense Values:

Attack:

None - Your role cannot attack players directly.
Basic - Your attacks will kill any role with a Defense value of None.
Powerful - Your attacks will kill any role with a Defense value of Basic.
Unstoppable - Your attacks will kill any role with a Defense value of Powerful.

Defense:

None - Your role will die to any Attack.
Basic - Your role is protected from Basic Attacks.
Powerful - Your role is protected from Powerful Attacks.

Terms:

Roleblock (RB, rbed, rber): Prevents the target from doing night actions. If they can roleblock, they are immune to it.

Cleaned: Makes the target not reveal their role upon death.

Charges: The limit in how many times you can use your ability.

Full Moon: All even numbered nights are a Full Moon, in which some roles become more powerful.

Guilt: If this is inflicted on someone, they take their own lives the next day due to the guilt, and are also Roleblocked that same night.

Detection Vulnerable: Appears innocent to Sherrif if non-evil, Suspicious if they are evil.

Detection Immune: Appears innocent no matter what.

Unique: Only one of that role can exist.

Side Role: This role can be applied on top of another

True Identity: The role that is given to the player at the start of the game. Certain roles can see this.

Roles:

Town Neutral: Must eliminate all evildoers.

Townsperson: Basic townie, no abilities, no killing power.

Mayor: Once they reveal themselves (can't lie about it either), their votes count as double. (Unique)

Doctor: Can protect a player at night, granting them powerful defense, but can target themselves only once. (Charges: 3)

Escort: Chooses a target. The target is roleblocked.

Trapper: Plants a trap on a target's door granting them powerful defense, and the trap triggers when someone attacks their target. (Powerful Attack)

. (Basic Attack) (Charges: 3)

Sniper: Chooses a target. If the target is attacked, shoot the attacker. (Powerful Attack)

Veteran: Can choose to go on alert which grants them basic defense, and powerful attacks anyone who visits. (Unique) (Charges: 3)

Jailor: Can choose to jail someone, roleblocking them and the jailor and jailee can talk. Can choose to execute the jailee, doing an Unstoppable Attack. If they kill a town role, their executions are forfeited. (Unique) (No night actions work on the jailee, except for Unstoppable Attacks.) (Can't Execute on Night 1) (Execution Charges: 3)

Shotgunner: Can choose to attack someone at night. If they attack a town role and regardless if they die or not, inflict Guilt on themselves. Can choose to become enraged, Unstoppable attacking anyone who visits the target, target included, but can't attack the next night.

Barista: Can choose to brew either red tea, green tea, or black tea. One charge on each tea brewed, and cannot brew another tea until they give out the tea. Can choose to give the tea to another player. Red tea grants the target Powerful attack, green tea grants Basic defense, and black tea cures the target of any status conditions. (Like Guilt).

Mafia: Kill all who oppose you.

Mafia roles work on a Rank system. The rank will be given a number (the numbers will change when I add more roles). When a role dies, the previous number will be promoted, transforming into the role that died.

Mafia killing: Does the job quickly and swiftly.

Godfather (15): Is the head of the Mafia organization. Can choose to attack a player. Can talk to other mafias at night. (Basic Attack) (Unique) (Detection Immune) (Basic Defense)

Ambusher: Chooses a target, and prepares an ambush by the player's house (the "house" means nothing lmao) and can choose to either kill the target if they visit someone or the first person who visits them. Everyone else who visits the target (either the dead visiter or dead target) will learn the identity of the Ambusher.

Mafia Support: Aids the mafia in their dirty work.

Janitor (12): Chooses a target. The target is cleaned.

Framer (11): Chooses a target. The target becomes suspicious to the sheriff.

Disguiser(10): Can choose a mafia player, and can choose any role in the current round, dead or alive. That player is now seen as that chosen role. (Example: Joey chooses Mark, and chooses the role Mayor. Mark will now be disguised as the Mayor role, even upon death and when they kill someone or when they perform an action.) (Example 2: Mark decides to kill Steve whilst disguised as Mayor. The kill feed will read: Steve was killed by the Mayor.) (Anyone who is disguised is still Detection Vulnerable) (Charges: 2)

Blackmailer (9): Chooses a target. Target cannot communicate in any way. Hears anything said from private chats, but won't know where they are from.

Manipulator(8): Chooses a mafia player. They appear innocent to the sheriff.

Cultist: Choose a target. The target is asked if they want to join a cult, which will convert them to a Cultist and grant the role Basic defense (They still appear as the role they were before upon death). If they say no, they are roleblocked the same night, and the next night, they are poisoned. Appears as innocent to Sherriff, and appears as Townsperson upon death. Can also choose to attack the target if they say no. (Basic Attack) (Only gains Basic Defense if converted, the original Cultist turns into Cult Leader when 1 other person is converted. Cult Leader still has the same ability, just has a different name.) (RoleBlock Immune)

Chaos, Chaos!

Outsider: On full moons, chooses a target. Target and Outsider switch roles. The target is roleblocked during the switch. Does not work on Godfather and mafioso, and roleblock immune roles. The mafia is informed when a mafia role is switched (Because they basically get a new teammate)

Amnesiac: Can remember a dead player's role at night, turning into the said role.

Neutral Evil:
