New ability-Weep: You may only use this ability if you are dead. Block all feedback from your target and instead reveal all of their feedback to the Coven. Using this ability on someone who you previously chose with Hollow Whisper will cause them to become Deafened too. Players can't be Deafened twice with this ability. Targets know they were chosen, and the coven will know who you chose with Weeping when the night ends.

New trait:
-You lose the ability to use Weeping if all members of your team are dead.

-If you leave the game the holder of the Necronomicon will be able to choose who to use your Weeping ability on.

Messages:
"The Weeping of a Banshee have prevented you from concetrating, preventing you from gaining feedback!" (Shown when chosen by the Banshee)

"The Weeping of a Banshee have haunted you again, which have damaged your hearing senses, you have been Deafened!" (Replaces the previous message when Weeping would Deafen the target)

"A Banshee has tried to Deafen you with their Weeping, but you were capable of resisting!" (Would be shown in addition to the 1st message if a player would be inmune to Deafen by the Banshee's weeping ability)

"The Banshee has revealed the feedback they blocked from (Player):" (Shown to the Coven when they obtain information from the Banshee)

Why?
Banshee is a very underwhelming Coven member. Their feedback blocking capabilities can be good, but their main mechanich, which is Deafening, isn't. This new ability will allow Banshee to keep using their ability but in a nerfed way, which allows the Banshee to hide away feedback for the Coven even when dead, allowing Banshee to have utility even when dead (Without having the Medium problem, since the Necronomicon holder will be able to control the Banshee even if they left). It also fits well with the thematic of the role.

#

Alright I had 2 ideas for Banshee and the 1st was already implemented

#

So I guess I will post number 2

#

Bc I feel like im better at balancing evils rather than townies.

"You may only use this ability if you are dead"

#

whar

#

why

#

coven smokebomb but spy

#

uh

#

all this just seems extra\

#

usually when you kill an evil it's so that their ability cannot work anymore and so that they are not a part of the game

#

so this is bad for obvious reasons

#

please don't reimplement TiS Jester

@strange sleet I know you are a botc player, so Imma make it quick.
Death-based roles dont work in tos due to the fact dead players cant vote

Like you deafen the player:

  • they dont see info
  • you get the info instead of ur target
  • instead of your target no being able to see anything in day, they will see the text but cant see:
  • who said it (they see ???)
  • number (so ppl dont just say what number they are so the deaf person)
  • @name #role and even if it wasnt with # roles (jester) and shortened roles (jest)
    wont be seen or tk tp... (ik this would be hard or too much to do all this (like tav, sk, arso) and stuff but im just given a idea
  • cant see votes or vote messages in chat (if the deaf person cant see numbers or names it will be very hard to know who to vote, but unlike vm, still can vote) and too make it soo it doesnt just spam vote everyone until it gets it right, the deafen person only gets to vote/change their vote 3 times that day (3 so its possible for the deafened person to always vote if there are 3 trials that day and they happen to get it right those 3 times)

And finally a special ability
Where banshee can write 5 words that the deafened wont be able to see in case some meta gaming shit happens and banshee can change those 5 words as much and anytime she wants

#

This ability would make banshee a bit more fun imo since you have to predict or prevent your target hearing specific words that you dont want them so hear and not just a button

#

I yaped way to much but yeah and ik that maybe even all this wouldnt give that much value since important info could be repeated to the deafened person next day or that most time town doesnt even need the deafened person's vote to up someoen but yeah its just a idea after all

The problem with banning numbers so that people can't just say who they are is people are just going to create a system to get around it. People will start using lettered numbers (like one) and if that gets banned, people can create systems like having a letter of the alphabet at the beginning of messages which correspond to numbers (like a=1, b=2, c=3, etc). No matter what you ban, people will find ways around it until there is nothing left.

I know your joking, but that could happen if enough things in messages get banned
