The vigilante is a killer on the town side. Depending on the variation, they may be able to kill every night, or be limited to a certain number of times during the game. Sometimes, instead of killing during the night, the vigilante will be able to kill during the Day, thus becoming a Daytime Vigilante. Typically Vigilante killing methods do not vary significantly from Mafia ones.
It is often argued (especially by PokerFace) that on Night 0 vigilantes should use their night-kill ability to eliminate any players that have a history of a purposely anti-town play style. Players with a history of ruining games in terms of fun or almost bannable offenses are also acceptable targets on night 0. If no player falls into either category, only then will PokerFace of those that follow him his ideas, hold their fire
Pie is good also argues that vigilantes should kill night 0 (and every night thereafter), although for different reasons - statistically, it should be to the town's advantage to introduce a random kill that cannot hit the vigilante himself. PokerFace's criteria for determining the night 0 target is acceptable, but those that strictly follow the views of Pie is good will still insist on killing a player on night 0
