Vote Thief
Alias:
  • Politician
Alignment: any
Role type:
  • Voting
Choice:
  • Night

A Vote Thief is a role that can target a player at Night to steal their vote during the following Day.

For balance reasons, Vote Thief is usually Town-aligned.

Use and Power

Town-aligned Vote Thieves can steal other players' votes. This has no practical positive effect except possibly to stop quickhammers in LyLo and/or single-handedly decide the game if only three players are alive. It can, however, have a nasty negative effect if the Vote Thief is killed during the Night, rendering one player Voteless during the next Day.

Scum-aligned Vote Thieves have one more vote to their faction's credit as long as the Vote Thief is alive. In order to balance this like in a normal game, this means the scum team has one fewer member than usual and gets hosed if the Vote Thief dies.
