Mastermind#3294

Cannot be in the same game as clown

Win condition: Survive until both the murderer and detective are eliminated (surviving until the end isn’t necessarily required).

Ability: During the night, you can choose one player to intercept, and another to redirect to. Any abilities directed towards the intercepted player will affect the redirected player instead. For example, if the murderer tries to kill player A, but the mastermind redirects it to player B, the latter will be killed instead.

This ability also reveals who used the ability, and what type of ability it was (not necessarily the exact role they are. If they’re a spy or scout for example,the journal log would appear as, “You have successfully redirected Bob’s bug from player A towards player B).

In addition to this, if you redirect one of the spy/psychic abilities, you will get information on the player it redirected too aswell (for example, if you redirect a psychic ability, you get the psychic journal log saying something like “Bob is Good” ).

This is what some of the journal logs would look like:

Murderer/Assassin: You have successfully redirected Bob’s kill from Player A towards Player B!

Psychic/Dark Psychic: You have successfully redirected Bob’s read from Player A towards Player B!

Unsuccessful redirection: You watched Player A, but nothing happened!

If you happen to redirect someone’s kill towards themselves, this message will appear:

You redirected Bob’s kill from Player A to Bob, but they can’t kill themselves!

You are still able to redirect the murderers kill towards the assassin, just not the other way around (assassin can’t kill murderer).

If you get your ability redirected the message “The mastermind has thwarted your plan!” will appear, and you won’t get any journal logs.

(I know the win condition could be a little easy sometimes, since the murderer can get found out before you even do anything, and the detective can die at random, but it’s more interactive than just making them survive until the end, which was my original idea. If you have a better idea for one please comment it.)

it would be too op right, ik just until the detective and murd get killed/voted out but like it could get annoying and too confusing because you could just screw up everything with the good team/bad team and would the person that you watched know there move was redirected?
