Neutral Killing

The Neutral Killing roles are the group of evil-doers who don't work for the or, only themselves. As the name suggests, they are all capable of killing at night. Special to this alignment, everyone of its roles is a faction of their own, although such a faction typically only has one member in competitive rounds. This doesn't make them any less threatening however, as these roles are some of the most capable killers in game. In addition to their stunning ability to kill, all Neutral Killing roles have Basic Defense, (but for the, you have to kill someone to gain it) making them a real headache for the and , as the killers' insubordination cannot be rectified through "normal means".

Because only one faction can win in each game and every faction aims to see every other faction's members dead, Neutral Killing roles violently clashes with, the , the , the and other Neutral Killing roles that are not of their own. For example, cannot win with, but can win with other. This also means they can only ever win with non-faction roles (/), and their own kind.

Due to their "third party/outsider" nature, it is important for Neutral Killers to keep both the and the  equally matched throughout the game, such that when the dust is settled, other factions no longer have the means to oppose the killers. To further reward the killers' ability to maintain balance around the, '''they always win by default in stalemates. In a 1v1v1 situation, it is generally considered more "sportsmanlike" to side with a Neutral Killing role over a member of the  or due to the increased challenge the killer must face.'''

In most Game Modes, there will only be a single Neutral Killing role in play. More may appear when the Any slot becomes another Neutral Killing role. Most likely, when this happens, the two Neutral Killers will be opposing each other. But in the rarest of occasions there could be two identical Neutral Killing role in the game, in which case they will be a powerful force to be reckoned with. Rainbow Mode features more Neutral Killing roles than any other game mode (except some Custom Setups): The and  both appear twice among the Rainbow Mode role list.
