Justice

From Elanthipedia
Jump to navigation Jump to search

Crime in Elanthia is regulated by the justice systems of the various provinces and local villages. The JUSTICE verb will tell you if the area has justice enforced or if it is a lawless area. If you are wanted guards will, in time, capture you as you pass. If you wish to surrender yourself to clear charges against you, you may do so with the Surrender command. The RECALL WARRANT command can be used to recall any outstanding criminal warrants you have.

Justice Type Messaging
Standard Justice After assessing the area, you think local law enforcement keeps an eye on what's going on here.

Hara'jaal Justice

Hara'jaal is a non justice area and most crimes will result in no punishment. If you are hunting Corsairs, they will occasionally look for a guard to have you arrested. If caught by the guards you will be tied to a post and whipped.

Thieves' Guild Justice

Thieves can use their contacts to dispense their own justice.

Command Use
Contact <target> Thug [Theft] Sends your thugs after a non-Thief who steals.
Contact <target> Thug Item Sends your thugs to collect Ambika items from non-Thieves
Contact <target> Thug Graverob Sends your thugs after any Thief grave robber.


Trade Route Justice

If a trader catches a thief stealing from them on a trade route they can accuse the thief at the nearest outpost. The guild will send thugs to beat the perpetrator and leave them for dead.

Syntax: Accuse <thief>
