Maid (BD Social)

Class/Lore/Fanfic
#1

Here is a suggestion for another social class, based on some of the old noble’s abilities like hearsay and secret message, which I thought were really fun and interesting abilities but sadly got removed.

The Maid
Day Ability 1: Eavesdrop
Select a player. You will be alerted if said player speaks tonight. (Prince, Jailed player, Gossip, Psychic, Linked players, Unseen/Cult, etc). 2 uses.
Day Ability 2: Expose
The next whisper from anyone will be made public. 3 uses.
Night Ability 1: Gossip
Ask all players for gossip, up to three people will be able to send an anonymous message to the Maid. Unlimited uses.
(This is my attempt to make Noble’s hearsay come back. It would work like this: As soon as you click the ability, everyone would get a message saying “A Maid is looking for Gossip!” and all living players would get a box like the one for whispers. Every player can write one message in the box, and the maid will be able to read only the first three messages sent. The Maid will not know who is sending her the messages).
Night Ability 2: Secret Message
Allows a player to write an anonymous message that will be displayed at the beginning of the day. 2 uses.

The Housekeeper (Placeholder name)
Day Ability 1: Trollbox
Select a player and whisper a short phrase into the trollbox. It will appear as if that player said it. 2 uses.
Day Ability 2: Expose
The next whisper from anyone will be made public. 3 uses.
Night Ability 1: Gossip
Ask all players for gossip, up to three people will be able to send a message to the Maid. You will know who exactly sends a message. Unlimited uses.
Night Ability 2: Cleanup
Select a player, if they die tonight their class and logs will be hidden. 2 uses.

Only one class needs Telepathy

Then ask if they were linked or jailed, and they’re insta outed if not.

#3

also this class used to be a thing its just a huge rework to it

#4

This would make psychic not as confirmable since a converted maid could fake telepathy on one of her unseen members, also allows investigative classes to give leads or information without fear of being outed. (Maid would know who sent said message though).

This ability is powerful but it has 2 uses and you can waste it if you use it on someone who hasn’t talked. Would also make unseen/cult cautious of what they say at night. If its too powerful I can change it to 1 use or change it for a different ability. Would appreciate suggestions!

#5

I actually like Expose a lot.

Might be good for a Noble rework.

#6

Maidservant or Unseenmaid might be good names

Btw got them off google

Ok, I swapped Secret message and Eavesdrop. Does it look better now? I also gave the converted maid trollbox (with limited uses) because I think it would be interesting to have an evil class with trollbox and it fits the theme of spreading misinformation of the converted maid.

Ok, with the changes to the Psych… ermm “Mystic” the old gossip ability was redundant, so I changed it for something else. I’m trying to bring back the old Noble’s hearsay but making it a bit less random. The converted maid has the same ability but the messages are not anonymous to her.

Please give me any feedback/suggestions you might have.
