-A '''Bulletproof Vest''' is either an [[Inventor#Items|item]] or an intrinsic [[Protected Roles|protected role]] that provides immunity to [[nightkill]]. The role is extremely powerful if unrestricted, since it can literally create a unkillable [[confirmation|confirmed]] townie that can force a [[draw]] upon the [[scum]] and does not require any skill to use. Some common ways to make it less powerful include:
-* limit the [[one-shot role|number of uses]];
-* immunity to gunshots may not provide immunity to [[Serial Killer]]s, since they use non-traditional killing methods;
-* remove the immunity in a 1-1 [[endgame]] situation, since the [[townie]] lacks any way to prevent the [[Goon]] from walking up and shooting them "in the head" (the role is entirely passive);
-* give the [[Mafia]] a role which can invalidate [[protection]], such as a [[Strongman]].
-* do not count as town for purpose of the Mafia win
-Bulletproof townies may drop intentional [[Finding the Cop|Cop]]s or [[Finding the Doc|Doc Tells]], since it benefits them to try to draw the attack overnight. This creates a [[WIFOM]] situation for scum, if they know such a role exists.
