Dr. Frankenstein

Role Description

The Frankenstein is a variation on the Necromancer role, except that it chooses pieces of dead players to create a new role for the resurrected player. The Frankenstein created will 'belong' to the Doctor.

Role Powers

  • The Doctor grave robs a dead player's grave each night, but is unable to rob the same grave twice
  • Three times during the game, when they have three body parts, they may put them together (choosing head, torso and legs) to resurrect a player (this is done instead of grave robbing)
    • The resurrected player will be whoever the head belonged to
    • The torso will determine the new role's powers
    • The legs will determine the alignment and shield of the new role

Alternatives

  • The Doctor may choose his alignment at the start of the game
    • If Innocent: The Dr would only produce innocent Frankensteins
    • If Neutral: The Dr would produce Frankensteins normally
    • If Evil: The Dr could become an Evil Wizard team, with Frankensteins becoming rez-converts (this is very hard to balance)
  • The Doctor may rob the same graves several times
  • The body parts and their associated effects are randomly assigned
  • The Doctor may have to specify which part they are taking from the corpse
  • The resurrected players may have a pre-determined alignment
  • The powers of the Frankensteins are determined by ALL the parts involved (e.g. a dreamer and an Inventor body parts are used, so the new role gives dreams out for other people to use)

Also Known As

  • Grave Robber

Sample Role

Dr Frankenstein
Alignment: Survive until the end of the game
Win Condition: All Evil players defeated

Grave Rob: Every night you can rob the grave of a deceased player. PM the name of a dead player and you will harvest their body from their grave. You cannot rob the same player twice.

Construct: Three times during the game you may create a monster out of your stolen bodies. You must have robbed at least three graves to use this ability. You must send in a list of three things; the head, the torso and the legs. You must assign a robbed body to these. The player who is the head will be resurrected with the powers of the player who is the torso and shall have the alignment and shield of the player who is the legs. Once a dead corpse is used, it is spent (even if that player was the torso or legs). If the monster dies again, you may grave rob them again. This ability will be used instead of Grave Rob.

You have a __% shield
