Description

Choose a player to shield with your life each night. If they're attacked, you and the attacker die instead.

Lore

Taking a bullet isn't brave - it's just the job.

Abilities & traits

  • Cannot target same player consecutively - Whether this role can target the same player on consecutive nights
  • Can guard self - Allow the Bodyguard to guard themselves [On, Off (default)]

How to play

You're a one-time sacrifice that takes out the attacker with you. Guard high-value targets like a confirmed Cop. If you die protecting someone, both you and the attacker die - a worthy trade if you catch the Godfather. Can't guard the same player two nights in a row.
