There's been some discussion on the discord that arcfiend feels a bit directionless and slightly empty of flavor compared to other antags, save for the wire riding. I thought I'd make a thread just to group any ideas people have for arcfiend together.
The thing I had thought of first was to make the power cap of an arcfiend much lower roundstart, which would then be able to be upgraded with kills. I don't think the incentive to kill is entirely needed, but I think the motivator would make for a more fun loop with more direction.
Another thing I want for arcfiend is just another couple abilities mostly dedicated to flavor. I'm thinking something like a 'possess machine' ability that lets you enter computers, vending machines, AI monitors etc. Possessing a vendor would let you shoot items out at people, possessing an AI monitor would let you speak through it etc.
