Also, in a bit of history, it was a legitimate mafia title signifying the significant power a Don held over the rest of the American mafia back in the 1920s, before the establishment of the Commission. Here's a bit of reading:

Secondly, what happens if a player who is part of a vigilante group effort is targeted by another player (or group of players) in the same night?
So say that players A, B, C, & D are attempting to kill player Z tonight. But serial killer X is targeting player B tonight. Will player B die prior to his group attempting their kill? Will the group kill take place first? Or will the fact that he is part of a group that night prevent him from being attacked at all?
1) 4 townies would fail as well.
2) I spend time arranging the narrative so that all night actions are completed. Sometimes takes a bit of juggling, but it works out. In your example, the first hitter would be part of a team that whacked somebody early in the narrative, but then is beset herself on the way home. Aside from narrative fidelity, in game terms, all active night actions are simultaneous. The only protection from X, for B, would occur if Doctor Y had submitted orders protecting B.

Edit how is my mafia speak?
Come on, sign up. A spammer like you will do just fine.

This will be my first mafia game in a few years. Do you remember me from that game I got lynched because I didn't post that much, that game I got assassinated because I didn't post that much or the time I was the doctor and got assassinated because I didn't post that much?
Hmm, I really should think about changing my tactics.
