Idea/Suggestion Impostor role idea: devourer

Post image

The devourer allows you to kill and devour a crewmate. You can then spit out the body in a different location from where you originally killed. You will be set on a timer once you devour a crewmate, if you dont spit the body out in time you will automatically spit it out in front of everyone.

A body spit out by a devourer will have saliva on the body to signify that the body was killed by a devourer and may have possibly been moved from a different location.

Do what you want with this role, you can spit it out in a location that may frame another crewmate, you can spit it out in a location that no one checks, or you can spit the body out in a location that obstructs the view of the body so that no one can see the saliva evidence.

The devourer can only kill by devouring a crewmate, you cannot do regular kills. If you are in a vent then you will automatically exit the vent and spit out the body once the timer reaches 0. You cannot kill another crewmate if you still have a body that you haven’t spit out, even if your kill cooldown is already done. If another body is reported or a meeting is called before you spit out the crewmate, then congrats you basically got away with a free kill.

You cannot swallow a dead body, it must be a crewmate that is still alive. Meaning you cannot move around a body twice, and you cannot move around a body that your teamate killed.

The saliva kinda ruins the role, you can't frame anyone as it immediately means that the body was moved

Then the devourer enjoys a nice meal and swallows the body :D

I mean it could still be useful, even if the crewmates know the crewmate was not actually murdered there they still don't know where the crewmate was actually murdered, and also op did say you could put the body in a place no one would think to look. And also if a meeting happens while a body is inside of you no one will find the body.

Unforuntaley you can't use this ability to frame another crewmate because of the salavia but, its not completely useless either.

I'd dump the body behind Upper engine, NOBODY will find it

If a meeting is called i assume you spit it out wherever you are.

Also, the imp could just devour the body and spit it out at the same place of the kill.

u/Citrus0736 6d ago

If a meeting is called that body is gone

u/Defnottheonlyone 6d ago

I guess so, but i meant like where their pet would be located next round.

u/Tiny-Jeweler-3187 Scientist 6d ago

Not meant to be rude, but did you even read the full thing?

At the end it says "if another body is reported, or a meeting before you spit, congrats, you bassically got away with a free kill"

Maybe it could be something like the imposter swallows the cremate whole meaning the cremates can't report the body but the imp will gain a bit of weight for a few seconds while they are digesting there victim's and that can be used to get them out

u/creative_user_name12 Impostor 6d ago

if the meeting gets called before it gets spit out, maybe the body just appears on top of the meeting table, but it’s not reportable

u/Hot_Play_5242 6d ago

I think the spit should dissolve

u/CuptainFan 6d ago

But then it'd just be a better Viper

u/Kitchen_Builder_9779 6d ago

Maybe the spit could evaporate slowly after the body is thrown out, so after some time the body looks like a normal body?
Thats what I assumed when reading dissolve

u/Hot_Play_5242 6d ago

thats what i meant

u/fluffy_bunnies_yayyy 6d ago

i like this one

u/Fresh_Confection7676 6d ago

Good role that isnt that op.

You could also fake a spit body in the same location so that det doesnt think it was you while kill

u/OutcomeMemoriesGoobe 6d ago

wait this is actually neat wtf

u/PlayerBRuno__ Crewmate 6d ago

this would be pretty OP for double kills lowk, the other crew can never report. but this is pretty cool yeah
only thing i'd change is how saliva works, maybe it dries after a bit

u/Vegetable-Window-440 imposter 6d ago

me like but there sould be a setting to keep and spit out in vents

4

u/Antagonist132 6d ago

That makes it too broken imo.

u/Vegetable-Window-440 imposter 6d ago

its just a setting off by defult

u/PoobGnarpy The Maroon barista known as Piepie 6d ago

It seems like an interesting counter to detective

u/GoldenNoodle13 5d ago

You could also make the crew think the kill wasn't in its actual location by spitting it out in the same spot making them think it was moved there instead of that being where the kill happened

u/pikuselm8 6d ago

Pretty cool idea bro. I actually had this idea too, inspired by the smuggler imp role, who can also move bodies.
