Soulbinder - Town Support

[coral meadow]

"You are a possessive spirit who never wants to let their loved ones go."

** Attack:** None
** Defense:** None

(2️⃣) Bind

You were killed, but a Soulbinder refuses to let you rest! You live on in their heart now.

• At night, choose a player to Bind yourself to.
• When either you or the chosen player dies, you become Soulbound to them.
• This will notify the dead player giving them a message.

Soulbound

• Soulbound players gain a shared night chat with each other, regardless of death.

• Upon being Soulbound, you are locked out of Ghost Chat until either you or the Soulbinder dies.

• Additionally, if the player you are Soulbound to is dead, they may still use their abilities.

• Soulbound visits are considered astral visits.

__ Attributes__

• If you are a traitor of the town you can Bind to non-town roles and will share a nightchat with them.
  Your target cannot be Soulbound if the player has these conditions:

If they are a Town Power.
If they have disconnected.
If they are a Soulbinder.
If they are Soulbound.
If they are a Non-Town role.

** __ Win Conditions__**

• Eliminate every criminal and evildoer.

That 2nd picture looks familiar

[coral meadow]

nooooo I would neevvveeerrrr

eveerrrrr

[foggy stump]

Really cool concept but if it links to evil it's just a 1f1

This is basically better old admirer

Also 2 uses is insane

This would work alot better as to

[coral meadow]

Just incase the disconnect clause gets bent a little

like if they die THEN disconnect

[vapid night]

"If your target is has disconnected" 🔥 ✍️

[coral meadow]

You cant link to evils rn

[foggy stump]

Yeah and it outs that they are evil via failing

[coral meadow]

[coral meadow]

Nono, upon death

not in the moment

[foggy stump]

Ohhhh

In that case

It's alot more interesting

But imo evils should know someone attempted to soul bind em and who

So they don't just like kill them

But I think it's a really interesting idea and a good old admirer rework

[coral meadow]

Wouldnt they be encouraged to kill them

you can get all kinds of info from dead investigatives if they bother to stay

[foggy stump]

I'm saying if they attempt to soul bind you but I just realized town can't confirm if they are alive or dead so it isn't needed

[coral meadow]

ohh okay

[foggy stump]

This is just a super cool old admirer rework

Big supporter of it

[sharp wyvern]

Yeah and it outs that they are evil via DYING.

Rah

[sharp wyvern]

Probably not the "who" part imo

[coral meadow]

That's fair this could out most illusionist/enchanter plays, not sure how to fix that though, maybe if they appear as town you can talk to them so it could be like actual deception

[vapid night]

Does it become op in Hidden Roles

[coral meadow]

I dont think so? If anything it helps confuse sb right

[mint ocean]

You would learn of the person was town or not though

Since they wouldn't become soulbound if they were evil... right?

[coral meadow]

Correct

[vague junco]

This seems really cool, but medium like-roles force people to not be able to play half of the game no matter what if they want their faction to win
Either

1. They can’t use any abilities, making them just a voice (speaking spirits, medium token, ToS1 medium)
2. They can use abilities, but lose the social aspect of the game, being forced to watch and unable to vote, basically being a second brain for the player who can hear them. (What this seems to be)

I’d much rather leave the game and play another one then being forced to play alongside someone else when that could have been avoided

retri just seems better then this also unless I’m reading it wrong

[coral meadow]

I've always seen this argument when it comes to medium-esque roles, I dont see why people cant just have the option to still be apart of the game, I always wanted to contribute more even if I was dead, thats why I miss medium so much.

[coral meadow]

Definitely depends on the player

[visual kayak]

They’re not really dead; they still have an ability and can privately communicate

It’s kind of like getting saved by a Town Protective, except you’re technically dead now

[vague junco]

If they can’t still vote that doesn’t mean much and reading the post doesn’t look like it, because they said you died, I’m ngl it looks to me like this is trying to be too much, a TP would keep the person alive that you wanted to soulbound, and a retri would use the dead persons ability, unless it’s TPow they can use which, in that case, being a TP is better still for keeping them alive in the first place, having a private chat doesn’t do much other then having another person able to spot evils, which presumably you can do perfectly fine

If you can soul bind two people at once, I guess that’s a niche since you’re kinda using two abilities at once

[pearl relic]

To me this is very similar to Amne

Except you can choose

[pearl relic]

Another part that's really powerful is the fact that dying confirms slots

So this is a TP that confirms slots and remedies death instead of just saving the person

[pearl relic]

Tbh this can fit as an Amne rework.

[vapid dew]

I cannot believe you’ve fooled everyone

This is MEDIUM

YOURE BRINGING BACK MEDIUM

This is pretty interesting though

I’m kinda iffy on the night chat between those two

[limber geode]

This is a very cool concept on paper but sadly I think it wouldn’t work because of what it’s competing against

[vapid dew]

Makes it too hard to fake it imo

[vapid dew]

…tavern keeper?

Retributionist?

I’d take this over ret

[limber geode]

Dead talk was never useful aside from hard countering forger/janitor/ambusher, and a Retributionist can just do everything this does ability wise without any prerequisites

[vapid dew]

This can soulbind to tpow

[limber geode]

With the added caveat that you don’t control the ability either & lose it if they disconnect

[limber geode]

Oh I’m not a fan of that

[vapid dew]

Yeah fair

[limber geode]

I’d like it if tos wasn’t already oversaturated with protective abilities

Everything about this is like, would be cool if other better stuff didn’t exist

I do like a lot about it though and think it’s better executed than basically everything it oversteps but

Unfortunately I don’t know if it’d work

[coral meadow]

Oof right I forgot I didnt impliment the no tpow rule

[coral meadow]

I always liked the idea of giving people freedom with what they do like how monarch gives to others but I do see why this wouldnt work that well in execution cause of disconnects and stuff.

[coral meadow]

yet if I put the word medium here there would be 10 downvotes instead of upvotes lol

[coral meadow]

I dont think it makes it hard to fake? Maybe with stuff like a soulbound vigi but other than that you can get away with being a necro and claiming this

[sacred turret]

I’m sensing a trend here… ferryman then soulbinder? 🐺 @coral meadow

You should definitely help balance Wolvesville

It’s too unbalanced esp village

[coral meadow]

aura seer coming soon 🔥

[sacred turret]

this is basically a one to one from wolvesville'

tho i mean we stole instigator

why not steal everything else right

[coral meadow]

This is technically just ravenkeeper but just isnt a tpow and with nightchat

[torpid rune]

this just seems kinda meh

i love the idea but it seems weak, the only value it provides is letting 2 specific people speak to you after death, right?

[foggy stump]

They also can use their abilities

[torpid rune]

OH

never mind

yes i just like this idea then

[whole heath]

Hmm I like this! however soulbinder seems a bit too idk evil? for town

I think something like Priest might work better imo just considering that (Although not well designed) Saint was a role in Tis and I think retheming it into priest could work well (Also I just really like the word Beatified and it works in this conotation) but honestly this is a cool TS idea that kinda brings back Medium without it sucking

Just make it so Only Night abilities can be used by soul bound peeps don't need a Jailor or Marshal just refusing to die because I said so

[coral meadow]

TY! and that's fair enough, I made this icon look as innocent as possible despite the name being kind of evil lol. But reflavoring this to saint would be nice cuz the name is kinda ripped from Wolvesville

[coral meadow]

Right, definitely will add that

might be abit detrimental to specific roles though like coroners that are soulbound

[whole heath]

Not nessecarily, just make it not work on TE/TG roles

Like "Their spirit was too powerful to be bound" or something

[coral meadow]

Hm, not a bad idea

[inland gorge]

Raven Keeper is that you

[coral meadow]

he knows.. 🐦‍⬛

[coral meadow]

Alrighty updated

[sacred plinth]

i don't know if i would rank this idea high or low

maybe medium

[vapid dew]

Enemies or friends?

[vapid dew]

I already made the joke smh

[sacred plinth]

you just said the thing i made a joke

[willow solstice]

cool but uh.. this is legit EXACTLY like soulbinder from wolvesville

[coral meadow]

Kind of the point
