Just to clarify things in case anyone would points it out afterwards, I get mixed up with days and nights, so I actually played Splatoon 2 the entire weekend (i.e., Day 2: Saturday at midnight EDT to Sunday 12 p.m.). Minor detail because SR started at 8 p.m. (Sat), which would have given me a lot of time to play this baby mafia game during the day.
I'm with @Kattea about the possibility of having similar abilities (seeing her situation with Rosetti).
However, I understand why @Mistreil would be sus of me now that I've mentioned my ability afterwards. The reason I did that was to not receive a biased answer based on what I would have written (say I disclosed my ability before you had explained yours).
Yes, from a Squirtle Squad perspective, this ability seems to have a conniving function: collaborating with Squirtle Squad teammates in order to gain townie's sympathy through this ability. If I were part of Squirtle Squad, why would I put myself at risk by disclosing this information after you and by twisting the facts? I could have simply said that I received a similar ability to yours (non-violent). This would have made me seem less of a threat compared to the information I've disclosed about the function of my star (playing it low would be a safer option).
Also, would it not have been smarter of me to disclose my ability before prying more into yours, as to seem less suspicious? That way, I could have gained traction on my credibility while damaging yours. I'm not saying that I don't believe that you had a star; however, it's a little weird/sus how a same item could work differently.
On the other hand, from a townie's perspective, this ability is pretty risky given that I'm not able to ascertain who's actually a townie/Squirtle Squad. Therefore, by using it carelessly, I may end up targeting an innocent townie, hence I didn't use it last night. This is also why I wanted to disclose my ability today in case I get "murdered" during the night. I would have at least disclosed some kind of (potentially useful) information to the townies.

While this is a valid reasoning, why would jeopardize myself like this? From a Squirtle Squad perspective, someone could have easily pointed that [the star scheme @Mistreil just described] out (in this case, you did) after I had disclosed of my ability, which would then get me on the sus list. If I were a Squirtle Squad member, wouldn't claiming an entirely different ability from yours or claiming that I have the same ability as yours make more sense? Detailing the differences/similarities of my ability like I did earlier would put myself at risk of being sussed by others, which would be unfavourable from a Squirtle Squad perspective.
