Poacher is an Action card from the second edition of the base set. It is a Peddler variant, but it gets weaker late in the game by making you discard from your hand if any Supply piles have been emptied.

FAQ
Official FAQ
- You draw your one card before discarding.
- If there are no empty piles, you do not discard.
- If there is one empty pile, you discard one card; if there are two empty piles, you discard two cards, and so on.
- This includes all Supply piles, including Curses, Coppers, Poacher itself, etc.
- If you do not have enough cards to discard, just discard the rest of your hand.
Other Rules clarifications
- Non-Supply piles, such as Spoils, do not matter to Poacher.

Secret History
This is in a player interaction slot, vacated by Spy. I thought of having some vanilla bonuses with the penalty of discarding a card per empty pile. The vanilla bonuses had to be essentially fair at the price of the card, since you might never empty a pile until the game was over. So really it required a vanilla card I hadn't made yet. Well there was one of those, and it was +1 Card +1 Action + for . So there it is. Avoiding making that card all these years finally paid off.
