This isn’t a CW rework.
I just edited the day ability. Realized it was too OP.

so enjoy this quiet music as we wait for the screamsCourt wizzard: Bd Class
NOW UNIQUE
Passive:Lesser mage armor: Immune to occupation and target changing.
Night abilities: Tornado (3 uses , same as now)
Barrier: Same as now
Day ability: Master of magics and tricks( 3 uses)- Copies a random night ability from a target player . Replaces tornado untill it is used . You will not know what this ability is untill it is used. Ability is lost on use. Could be anything. Will fail if you steal prince’s execute.Can not target king. You will not get feedback from this ability unless it had an effect (eg.investigative abilities finding something other than ns, healing healing someone or curing a poison, bleed ., bear killing an attacker, etc) Can steal conversions . You will not get feedback if you convert a player. You will get feedback if it is an attack .or occupation
A feedbackless message would be : You used your stolen ability on X
If nothing else is taken from this thread, I really like the idea of Magical Barrier remaining on the CW in the form of a day ability.
It lets them do “Fun” things at night while keeping the main utility of the CW intact.
Having an infinite use day ability allows you to make their night abilities strong but limited. (as they will still have something to do in games that drag on through magical barrier.)

I think the biggest hurdle with Court Wizard is knowing early on who needs a barrier. The ability I would like for CW is a Day Ability called Augury that gives you three player names, at least one of which is an ally. To prevent this from pushing the CW into an investigative class the ability use could be limited to the first three days.
Augury, Day, 1 Use, Must be used within first 3 days. Gives you the names of three players, at least one of which is from an allied faction.

What a surprise. I made a CW rework. Have a look at it, early days yet.

I made another rework suggestion, simpler than the others I had.
The Court Wizard
Magic Barrier (Night) - Select a player. Prevents anyone from visiting them, unless they are trying to heal or attack them. Unlimited uses.
Tornado (Night) - Select two players. Everyone trying to visit one of them will instead visit the other. Bypasses redirection immunity. 2 uses.

Court Wizard Rework
Design Philosophy:
-Court Wizard should be hard to confirm (requires other BD as CW can’t confirm himself), but potentially incredibly powerful
-Abilities should have huge potential impact
-CW needs self preservation
I have a small write up on the whys, but TLDR; CW should be a powerful protector shielding the BD from harm. If confirmed, CW can provide huge (albeit limited) protection to surviving BD.
Passive:
Crystal Ball - You cast your spells from afar through your magical crystal ball, as such, your night abilities do not count as visits.
Day:
Cloak of Invisibility, 2 Charges
Tonight you will be immune to all visits.
Night:
Magical Barrier, 2 Charges
Target will be protected from attacks. Target will be notified they were attacked and shielded by a barrier. Court Wizard does not know if target attacked or not.
Illusionary Decoy, 2 Charges
Target will be immune to all visits, Target will be unaware they were visited - Visitors will be convinced their visit succeeded (Target Occupied, Attacked Successfully, etc). Court Wizard will know who visited the decoy, but not what for.
Sage would be reworked to be in line. I’m still debating adding another day ability with either minor social and/or investigative abilities.
