It's my first time hosting so i'd like people to check for balance and stuff before I start it up.

Two things.

Well, three.

First, awesome theme, love it.

Second, you don't appear to have a win condition for Santa Claus.

Third, I feel like Oogie Boogie's power could be more flavorful. I see people make the big bads Godfather copies so often, and it's kind of disappointing because of how much potential is wasted. Think about Oogie Boogie as a character. Is he exactly good at hiding or deceiving people? Not really. He does love gambling, though. Perhaps something to do with the death trap he had Santa Claus in?

I'm not ragging on your game; I think that a lot of the roles were thought out well. These are just the things I see that could use improvement.

The Santa Claus role fix is a must, though. Third Parties need their own win conditions.

Thanks for the advice. I've added a win condition for Santa Claus now.

I've changed Oogie's role to make it a gambling power that doesn't rely on random percentages.

You might want to specify that he guesses a non-mafia player's role, otherwise he can just be like, "___, Hooker" and get free kills. That is a really strong power though. I'm interested in seeing how it will play out.

There should probably be a caveat saying that he can't guess someone's role after already successfully guessing it once. Otherwise it's broken. Nice power!
