Night-kill: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 00:12, 2 December 2023

The Night-kill (frequently abbreviated as NK), commonly known as wolfing in Werewolf communities, is a factional ability most informed minority groups have at their disposal. Once during each Night, a member of the faction (Mafia, Werewolves, or Serial Killer, usually) may be dispatched to kill a player. In effect, each scum group gets a free kill each Night. This is a standard mechanic.

While the semantics vary, this is typically used to refer to factional kills, as opposed to Vig shots.

-The ability to remove a [[player]] from the game during the [[night]] cycle of the game is nearly ubiquitous to [[Scum]] groups; it is analogous to the [[lynch]] available to [[Pro-Town]] players during the [[day]].

-Sometimes, pro-town [[roles]] may also have the ability to perform night kills, and there are additional roles which can modify the standard one-kill-per-night-per-[[faction]] expectation. [[Mafia]] are not always required to kill every night; [[Serial Killer]]s often are, as a result of their insanity [[flavor]] text.
+While the semantics vary, this is typically used to refer to factional kills, as opposed to [[Vig]] shots.
-The term night kill is often abreviated as NK. Example: "I was NKed in my last game."
-For variations on this ability, see [[killing roles]].
