Nice. I ask because I could be equally beneficial to Town or Scum.
Indeed. In fact, the first person to gather the Dragon Balls was a villain (Pilaf), though his wish was intercepted by Oolong. Aside from that, other villains that used them were Garlic Jr, Lord Slug, and Dr. Kochin. Probably others, but I can't quite remember.
So anyway, cards on the table: There are three dragon balls in play. If someone gathers them together, they can wish for a usable action. So get to wishing, nerds :P
