Paranoid Gun Owner
|
The Paranoid Gun Owner involuntarily (and unknowingly) kills anyone who targets him during the Night, regardless of alignment.
Paranoid Gun Owner is very commonly abbreviated as PGO.
Variation
The Paranoid Gun Owner shares some similarities with a Bomb.
Uncommonly, a Paranoid Gun Owner is also Bulletproof (they shoot first before they're shot).
Use and Power
The Paranoid Gun Owner is a very swingy role, as in addition to killing the Mafia if they target him, he will indiscriminately kill Cops, Doctors, etc.
Since the PGO is not informed of who they have killed, this can also obscure how many actual killing roles are present in the game.
Typically, whatever powers were used on the PGO still take effect -- thus, if the Mafia choose to kill the PGO, the PGO will still die along with the Mafia performing the kill.
Play Advice
As usual, there is some debate over how to play this role. Ideal play for a PGO is to get targeted by the Mafia, while not being targeted by any Town power roles. However, safer play is to claim directly -- this keeps other Town power roles safe, but also ensures the Mafia will not target you.
