Forum:What role would serve quest nemeses?

I was thinking about a NetHack variant where you can play as antiroles. Their gameplay will have the following aspects:
- Quest leaders become Antiquest nemeses.
- Quest nemeses become Antiquest leaders.
- Quest guardians become Antiquest menaces.
- Quest artifacts remain the same. They now belong to Quest leaders (= Antiquest nemeses).
- The player is gonna traverse Quest branches in the opposite way.
As such, I was wondering what the antiroles would be. My current sketch is:
- Anti-Archeologist = Graverobber (An antithesis of an archeologist)
- Anti-Barbarian = (no idea)
- Anti-Caveman = Dragon Raiser (Serves Chromatic Dragon)
- Anti-Healer = (no idea)
- Anti-Knight = Dark Knight (Straightforward reversal)
- Anti-Monk = Sybarite (Seeks for luxury)
- Anti-Priest = Necromancer (Worships evil things)
- Anti-Ranger = (no idea)
- Anti-Rogue = Assassin (Direct reference to Master Assassin)
- Anti-Samurai = (no idea)
- (I'm omitting Tourist. What do you expect their antirole would be, a terrorist?)
- Anti-Valkyrie = Flame Mage (Opposite temperature to Valkyries)
- Anti-Wizard = Warlock (Performs dark magic)
Any suggestions to the blanks? --NDos (talk) 08:06, 18 February 2022 (UTC)
