Varieties:Level 28
Locations:Throughout the towns, wherever things may need guarding, especially gates and banks
Appearance:Stout and intimidating, these guards give the distinct impression that they will not be open to negotation
Way of Life:Inflexible.
If a guard has been told not to let people past, he'll keep that entrance blocked come hell or high water. But if you just want to beat up some old man a few yards away, he'll conveniently turn a blind eye.It's just not his job to care
