Thuringwethil can steal votes. That's bad enough. But then to actually use those votes and get away completely free? Nah. I want there to be some sort of drawback to keep it from being so easy.

There are certain situations where it would pay off, and others where it wouldn't, and the evil team will have to factor this into everything they do.

For instance, if they think Thuringwethil has been spotted by Luthien, they can have her kill Luthien that night and elect to use Thuringwethil's vote suck power then, and then unload all of her votes and the Seer's votes the next day to preserve herself for one extra day.

Or perhaps she'll take someone who has used up several of his bonus votes already and suck away two more from him at the very end to clinch dominant voting weight and thus the game.

Anyway, it's all situational. I don't want the power to be a clear advantage in every single circumstance. It's just an extra ability sitting there waiting to be used. An extra factor to be considered. Another level of possible strategy.
