Supernatural Mafia (This might fail)

Okay, I was just randomly thinking, and something occurred to me: what if there were ghosts? Like when a townie dies, they can give one supernatural and cryptic message to the other townies, assuming the Soothsayer is still alive. (all will be explained later)

the Mafia-
Don- General Don stuff. Always identifies as Mafia.
Goon- General Goon stuff. Might end up replacing Don. Always identifies as Mafia.
Terrorist- General Terrorist stuff. Cannot communicate with Mafia, but identifies as Mafia upon death. Innocent upon investigation.
Roleblocker- Can destroy innocent intentions. Will always Identify as Mafia. However, he/she is afraid of ghosts, and cannot act on days where there has been a Ghost Post.

The Innocents-
Inspector- Can check people out. Always identifies as Innocent.
Doctor- Can get you back on your feet. Always identifies as Innocent.
Lovers- They get to be happy, or not live. Isn't that fun? Identify as Innocent, unless the other is a Mafia. They will Identify as Mafia. Can communicate. Their love is powerful, and they become roleblockers... or something like that upon death. will go under more consideration.
Fishing Siblings- They are bound together in some weird relationship. If one dies, the other gets visited by the deceased sibling and kills the player that killed the other. Identification is Innocent. Can communicate.
Soothsayer- Ghosts may only post during the day while this character is alive. Upon your death, you will receive a PM on who the Soothsayer is, assuming this player is still alive. Identifies as Innocent always.
Townies- Nothing special. Innocent in all cases.
Ghosts- A dead person. Can only post once, and only if the Soothsayer is alive. Will receive further information upon death. There might be a ghost the first night. Not really that sure.

Ghosts can only post Once, and a ghost post can only happen once per day. Messages must be approved by me (so send me a PM), and not too specific. No dieing then coming back saying "_____ Killed me! Lynch them!". Ghost Posts will also be completely in Italics. NOTE: All players can become Ghosts- not just Townies.


Other Rules/suggestions
Night actions must be sent in, if possible.
Lynching is suggested. There's no telling what might happen in the dark.
Hunches should be followed, but Ghost Posts should be scrutinized.
IF you state in any way that you just lost the game, you will be killed as soon as I notice. ((Wargle))
Others to come!

Not sure how many people needed... *Counts* looks to be around 18-20. Maybe 15-18.
Suggestions to fix this/ make it more balanced appreciated!

something along the lines of Someone is not whom they seem... or something else like that, I'm just too lazy to think of another. But, I'm relying on the ghosts for creativity.

But wouldn't that reveal who the soothsayer is immidiately if the message is posted by them?
 
Wouldn't getting rid of the soothsayer be a pretty important thing for the mafia? I mean, they can potentially expose them pretty easily, and once the first ghost post happens I'd think that person would then be targeted by the mafia quickly.
 
well, yeah. I just figured it would be more realistic if the Soothsayer had to say it. I didn't think of the gameplay complications. Thanks for the feedback.
 
Cool ghost story bro.


EDIT: Can you change the Spectre Post to underline or something? I don't have a computer, so I have to use the Wii, and it can't see italics, for some retarded reason >_>

what if in double parentheses ((like this)) the say its a ghost post first? Also, I think you would know if a character posts after they are dead.
 
"Someone is not who they seem" is arguably the least helpful thing you could ever say in a Mafia game ever.

I'd recommend making the ghosts more important because at the moment it seems to be vanilla mafia WITH THE UNDEAD!!!
 
Well, it wouldn't be that per say, but I would need a situation to come up with a good cryptic message. Maybe I'll think up some things to spice up the other roles :/

EDIT: oh, and the ghosts will have all sorts of other role parts, but they will find out about that when they die, because I want it to be secretive and spooky.

Okay, voting time.

I can start it now, but a couple of roles would need to be cut. thoughts?

EDIT: also, there would be no ghosts to begin.
 
Now that's a bit long to wait, isn't it? I'd rather no posted roles be cut, but also no ghosts to begin with, if all they get is that one post. How would they start out the game, anyway? Would they be killed at the beginning of the first night, or stay 'alive' until they're lynched? Ghosts on the first day sounds kinda like it needs some smoothing out, or maybe some more details given on the specifics.
