Among us neutral role idea

THE DIVERTER (NEUTRAL):

This role is to do with guessing during a meeting. If an Imposter/Crewmate (some crewmate roles can guess) are trying to guess a role and they happen to click on the person that is diverter, the diverter will be notified that someone is trying to guess them and can basically divert the guess to someone else during the meeting, killing them.

More detail:

When the Imposter/Crewmate open up the guessing screen (image 1), on the screen of the diverter, it'll show the screen of the players in the lobby that aren't dead (Image 2) as soon as the Imp/Crew open the guessing screen. The diverter will have 5 seconds to pick a person at random. If they pick a person successfully in those 5 seconds, then the picked person dies in meeting. If the diverter does not pick, then they die. For them to win, there are 2 options, either they are the last one standing OR they have 4-5 successful diversions.

Things you could add to make it more useful:

Every round the diverter has a different crewmate role, but neither of those are to be any crewmate killing roles (sheriff, hunter, vigilante etc). This is so the people who have power to guess, feel more confident in guessing, giving the diverter the chance actually be useful.

Normally 1 imposter has the power to guess, maybe it would be better for more than 1 imposter to guess.

Not really a thing to add, but the reference imagers I showed could be used when coding this role. Mainly the shapeshifter screen for the diverter.

Any inconsistencies I may have not thought about that might be a problem, let me know!
