Babysitter
|
A Babysitter is a role who can target a player at Night to protect them. However, if Babysitter is killed that night, both the Babysitter and its target will die.
Use and Power
While the Babysitter can be played as though it is just a Doctor, if the Babysitter suspects they may be killed they can use their protection as a vengeshot onto a scumread. When playing a Babysitter, it's typically advisable to claim Doctor under the circumstances (massclaim and/or when facing a lynch) in which you claim if you actually were a Doctor, and then attempt to "vengekill" scum the following night; Mafia will nearly always nightkill a suspected Doctor, so you have a fairly substantial chance of being able to take someone with you.
As always, including multiple protective roles in the game can lead to broken role combinations. If you are going to include a Babysitter as well as another protective role in your game, make sure you specify how they interact with each other.
Sample Role PM
Hello, [Player Name]! You are a Town Babysitter.
This means that you can protect one player at night. You will stop any kills targeting them from working. However, if you yourself are targeted for a kill, both of you will die.
You win when there are no remaining threats to the town and at least one town player is alive.
