Lemme illustrate why Mafia Protectives are bad. Really just a resummarisation of what happened above, but hey.


 * They know who to usually protect/heal/whatever. The main problem with being a Doctor or BG is that you don't know who to heal. Will they happen to die that night? WHO KNOWS, are they a Mafia/Coven/Horrible person? Are they, gods forbid, the MEDIUM? This is what creates an air of mystery. Meanwhile, the Mafia be like yeah these guys are our guys why the fuck would we heal anyone else
 * It's a team advantage over anyone else. The Town may have a Doctor, but you can't always trust em. Mafia? Heh, TRUST EM TO DAYS.

Interestingly enough, this role makes healing Mafia members dependent on killing...which the Mafioso happens to DO...

I haven't gone into detail onto what this role should balance on, but I'm slightly leaning towards rejected. Then again, I do that a lot, heh, so take my opinion with a grain of salt. Not the above points tho.
