Security Guard

Security Guard Alias: none Alignment: any Role type: Investigative Choice: Night

A Security Guard is a role that may notify a player of whomever else targeted them. In effect, they are a reverse Watcher.

Standard version

Each Night, a Security Guard may notify a player of whomever else targeted them. If their action succeeds, the Security Guard's target will be given a list of other players whose night actions had the same target as the Security Guard's target's. Actions taken by a Ninja are ignored for this purpose, and the Security Guard will give the same results as if the Ninja's actions did not occur.

If a Security Guard's action fails, the Security Guard's target will not get a results PM at all. This is different from the result a Security Guard's target would get if the Security Guard was the only one to target them.

Variations

A Visionary is to a Voyeur as the Security Guard is to a Watcher. A Visionary may notify a player of whatever else targeted them.
