tp role: Cleric

[CrowdfordBot]

captainluffy: Once per game during the night, the cleric may protect one player.

Thought it might be good to have another non conformable tp role

[CrowdfordBot]

e_thsn: Kinda weak though

[CrowdfordBot]

e_thsn: can protect one person each game once mabe?

[CrowdfordBot]

e_thsn: if we even want that

[CrowdfordBot]

captainluffy: its meant to be weak

[CrowdfordBot]

captainluffy: defensive role like a runner

[CrowdfordBot]

captainluffy: except tp

[CrowdfordBot]

e_thsn: yeah but if you make it 1 use and 1 person then it has to guess right then become citizen

[CrowdfordBot]

e_thsn: would suck to be

[CrowdfordBot]

captainluffy: i mean there is a million town roles that become citizen after using their power

[CrowdfordBot]

captainluffy: which is intentional

[CrowdfordBot]

shapechange: eyehhhh

[CrowdfordBot]

shapechange: don't hate it, don't see many situations where I'd make space for it in a list

[CrowdfordBot]

shapechange: would probably vote abstain

[CrowdfordBot]

mctsts: yeah I have no reason to vote no and no reason to vote yes

[CrowdfordBot]

mctsts: this is basically just runner

[CrowdfordBot]

mctsts: you can claim for an elected role and protect yourself

[CrowdfordBot]

captainluffy: but for claimspace reasons, it expands options

[CrowdfordBot]

mctsts: sure

[CrowdfordBot]

mctsts: but its not interesting

[CrowdfordBot]

captainluffy: its not innovative or anything

[CrowdfordBot]

captainluffy: but it does have potential to be a staple role

[CrowdfordBot]

shapechange: not every role has to be innovative, but considering we have plenty of staple roles (including some that already function similarly to this), i would at least like to see something interesting in a new role

[CrowdfordBot]

captainluffy: like if theres a defensive role for mayor candidacy in a partial list. now we wont know what category the claimspace for it is from

[CrowdfordBot]

captainluffy: yeah there was hooker before, but that one is a bit overly defensive

[CrowdfordBot]

shapechange: for me, that is far too niche to make this interesting

[CrowdfordBot]

shapechange: i am not the be all end all of wwr opinions but i think i can say that this is objectively pretty bland

[CrowdfordBot]

captainluffy: but its not like we shouldnt have a new simple role ever again

[CrowdfordBot]

e_thsn: no but again one that's not similar to others

[CrowdfordBot]

mctsts: yeah I mean its completely fine to add a simple role

[CrowdfordBot]

shapechange: yeah i wouldnt be against adding it

[CrowdfordBot]

captainluffy: i also just think theres a lack of fake claimable tp roles

[CrowdfordBot]

shapechange: i just don't think anybody except the champion would really go out of their way to use this

[CrowdfordBot]

captainluffy: well, if its added in unlimited, then it probably would be used not too infrequently

[CrowdfordBot]

e_thsn: again it might be better if it has unlimited protects but can only visit each player once like exo

[CrowdfordBot]

captainluffy: thatd go against the intention of having it be a weak-ish tp role

[CrowdfordBot]

captainluffy: and itd honestly be very game changing

[CrowdfordBot]

mctsts: yeah

[CrowdfordBot]

shapechange: yeah that's too powerful

[CrowdfordBot]

captainluffy: i decided to make it like blessed wolf where the survivor learns the role of their attacker

[CrowdfordBot]

captainluffy: actually nvm, that would confirm cleric, which is what we dont want

[CrowdfordBot]

captainluffy:

**Cleric** | Townsfolk Power
__Basics__
Once per game, at night, the Cleric may bless a player to protect them from any attack for the remainder of the night.
__Details__
Blessing a player is an immediate action.
The Cleric may bless themself.
If a blessed player evades an attack, the attacker is told it was due to their target being blessed.

__Simplified__
Once per game, at night, the Cleric may bless a player to protect them from any attack for the remainder of the night.
If a blessed player evades an attack, the attacker is told it was due to their target being blessed.

__Formalized__
Immediate Night: [Quantity: 1]
    • Protect @Selection from `Attacks` (~Phase)
    • Target @Selection (~Phase)
On @Target Visited [Attack]:
    • @AttackSource is `Group:Wolfpack`: Reveal `@Target survived because they were blessed` to #wolfpack
    • Otherwise: Reveal `@Target survived because they were blessed` to @Attacker

[CrowdfordBot]

captainluffy: (same feedback messagge as blessed wolf)

[CrowdfordBot]

captainluffy: actually idk, maybe i should remove the feedback

[CrowdfordBot]

captainluffy: hm yeah because u could sort through claims if they protect themself from a tk. but at the same time, youd be trading that in return for a wasted attack and protection, so maybe its a balanced trade. and i guess it wouldnt work if the tk was priest or apothecary or barber. oh well, at least it has varying strategies depending on the tk in use

[CrowdfordBot]

the8thsoul: Slight buff could just be the ability doesn't get used until successful. Moderate buff would be that they learn one player that is going to die and then can choose to save that player.

[CrowdfordBot]

the8thsoul: Kinda like the life potion of Witch in Werewolf

[CrowdfordBot]

the8thsoul: Actually the second buff won't work as it would split the night phase into 2 parts

[CrowdfordBot]

venomousbirds: this is guardian before guardian gets elected

[CrowdfordBot]

venomousbirds: this also feels like there'll be a way for this role to be confirmable

[CrowdfordBot]

venomousbirds: i dont think we need another town protect role, it sounds easy
