I too like this better as an game-event, rather then a player-role.
Making a whole antagonist role requires lots of code and lots of balancing, just so that one player can get stuck playing a weird version of the wrath.
But as a game mechanic, this is very simple. It would be just like THE SHARK, but when you fart on somebody's face, it switches to the new target.
I like that too, but I don't know how it should be added. The Shark is just and admin verb for killing someone they don't like, not a random event. And this seems exceptionally more dangerous than a random event like meteors. It would be a little more like that one mob from the void or disaster called eldritch figure or something. Also it will definitely need a way to kill it if it's going to be an AI that is just going to follow you. Like there should be a way for the crew to help you out and fight it.
