To night kill (frequently abbreviated as NK) is to remove a player from the game during the [[night]] cycle. Its use is almost exclusive to [[Scum]] groups, [[Vigilantes]] being one of the few town-aligned roles that have the ability. A night kill may be thought of as similar to [[lynching]] during the day.
The '''Night-kill''' (frequently abbreviated as '''NK''') is a [[factional]] ability most [[informed minority]] groups have at their disposal.  Once during each Night, a member of the faction ([[Mafia]], [[Werewolves]], or [[Serial Killer]], usually) may be dispatched to kill a player.  In effect, each scum group gets a free kill each Night.  This is a standard [[game mechanic|mechanic]].


Although factions and roles are generally limited to one night kill per night, this may not always be the case.
While the semantics vary, this is typically used to refer to factional kills, as opposed to [[Vig]] shots.

The Night-kill (frequently abbreviated as NK) is a factional ability most informed minority groups have at their disposal. Once during each Night, a member of the faction (Mafia, Werewolves, or Serial Killer, usually) may be dispatched to kill a player. In effect, each scum group gets a free kill each Night. This is a standard mechanic.

While the semantics vary, this is typically used to refer to factional kills, as opposed to Vig shots.
