An '''Absorber''', or ''Role Absorber'' is a role that absorbs the role powers of any role that targets him, except for [[killing roles]] and [[roleblocker]]s. | |||
From the first night he absorbs a role, he can use that role on subsequent nights as many times as he wishes, unless the original role user had limited shots, in which case he receives a number of remaining equivalent to the remaining shots of the original role user (Note: in some variations, the Absorber receives unlimited shots of the role ability, even if the original role had limited use of the ability). Generally speaking, absorbing a role ability from the original user does not rob the original user of the ability (Note: in some variations, when the Absorber absorbs the role ability, the original user loses that ability). An Absorber may only use one of the powers he or she has absorbed, per night. In this, the role is similar to the [[Jack-of-all-trades]] role. | |||

An Absorber, or Role Absorber is a role that absorbs the role powers of any role that targets him, except for killing roles and roleblockers.
From the first night he absorbs a role, he can use that role on subsequent nights as many times as he wishes, unless the original role user had limited shots, in which case he receives a number of remaining equivalent to the remaining shots of the original role user (Note: in some variations, the Absorber receives unlimited shots of the role ability, even if the original role had limited use of the ability). Generally speaking, absorbing a role ability from the original user does not rob the original user of the ability (Note: in some variations, when the Absorber absorbs the role ability, the original user loses that ability). An Absorber may only use one of the powers he or she has absorbed, per night. In this, the role is similar to the Jack-of-all-trades role.
Examples
Night 1: A roleblocker targets the Absorber.
Result: The Absorber gains no powers.
Night 2: A Tracker targets the Absorber.
Result: The Absorber gains the Track ability, and may now Track from Night 3 on. Note: the Tracker can still Track each night.
Night 3: A Watcher targets the Absorber.
Result: The Absorber gains the Watch ability, and may now Track OR Watch from Night 4 on. Note: the Watcher can still Watch each night.
Night 4: A Cop targets the Absorber, Investigate him.
Result: The Absorber gains the Investigate ability, and may now Track, Watch, OR Investigate from Night 5 on. Note: the Cop can still Investigate each night.
Night 5: A Mafia Goon targets the Absorber, killing him.
Result: The Absorber dies.
