Subverter

Name: Subverter

Troupe: Traitor

Description: Assassinate people & recruit them in to your troupe.

Objectives: The same ones every traitor gets.

Here, take my spare pistol and go kill people. I've already shown you how to do it.

Concept

The Subverter's goal is to murder people with what few tools they have, followed by usung their brainwashing microchip to turn them in to a traitor.

Abilities

The Subverter only starts with a pistol with a spare magazine of ammunition, and two brainwashing microchips.

The brainwashing microchip is an item that only works on critical players. When used on a critical player, it will adrenaline-revive them at low health (similar to other masks like the parasite or the daredevil and introduce them in to the traitor troupe as a Recruit, which is the mask that all players who get converted in to a traitor mid-round recieve. The recruit has no special gear or anything of the sort.

Gameplay

The Subverter has a lot of interesting, granular strategy that can be employed on their side. Since your microchips are limited, you might want to save your chip for an important target - or maybe you just give it to the first person you see, out of desperation, since you're losing and need to enact a desperate play. The Subverter also acts as an interesting element of social intruige, since someone you may have known before as an ally could mysteriously become subverted. This (hopefully) won't intrude on the design space of any other future conversion antagonists, as this is fairly limited and different in application compared to what those usually try to accomplush.
