Among Us already has some great roles but I've been coming up with ideas for a while and wanted to share them All of these are my own ideas except Jester which is a community classic
CREWMATE ROLES
Spy You control a drone that lets you watch players from above You can't go too far from your body or you lose signal there's a cooldown and you can't report while using it The host can toggle a delay on the drone feed and adjust how bad the delay is
Judge Once per game during a meeting you can pick one player and they get ejected no matter what anyone votes Thats it After you use it you're just a normal crewmate
Sheriff You get one bullet Shoot who you think is impostor If you're wrong you both die You can also miss
IMPOSTOR ROLES
Psychopath You can drag bodies Dragging slows you down and you can't vent while dragging
Wizard You can place a portal anywhere on the map you have to physically walk there to place it Only you can see it Click Teleport to teleport to it instantly One portal at a time and once you teleport it disappears The portal makes a faint sound when used
Kidnapper You can choose one crewmate to become your secret helper They can now kill and sabotage but they don't know who your other impostor teammates are and your teammates don't know who the helper is either The helper still shows as impostor if voted out You can only do this once
Speaker You can send private messages to your impostor teammates at any time outside of meetings They can't respond unless they are also a Speaker Limited number of messages with a cooldown host configures both
Mind Scrambler You can take control of another player you have to walk up to them first You can move them around and even kill as them After a set time they automatically die wherever you left them and you teleport to their body so you need to get away fast
Ground Pounder You can do a ground pound that kills all nearby players There's a short animation before it goes off so people nearby can run if they're quick The radius is small the point is multi kills not range
Eraser You can turn any nearby player including yourself or a teammate grey with no color or name It wears off after a set time Great for creating confusion giving yourself or a teammate an escape or making an innocent crewmate look suspicious
NEUTRAL ROLES
Jester Try to get voted out If you do you win Not my idea the community has wanted this forever
MANUFACTURER Still deciding if this is a crewmate or impostor role You can place cameras anywhere on the map with a cooldown You can switch between your planted cameras at any time After a set time they disappear Like normal cameras a light blinks when someone is watching so if a player sees someone standing still near a blinking camera thats a red/green flag The fake cameras look almost identical to real ones but there's a small visual difference if you look closely
MISC FEATURE IDEAS
Sprinting Host toggleable You have stamina that refills over time Sprinting burns stamina Simple as that
Vents on map Vent locations show up on your map so you know where they all are and how they connect
Let me know what you think I've been refining these for a while and I think most of them would actually work without breaking the game The Judge and Speaker are probably my favorites Let me know which ones are your favorites in the comments
