I must say that's a creative use of the Profession skill. I wouldn't have considered "guard" to be a profession where making a check would have any benefit, but after reading over the skill description, it seems quite appropriate. —Sledged 11:52, 30 November 2006 (MST)

Should the AL be LG? It seems more likely that town guards, especially in human towns, would tend toward LN (obviously there would be exceptions, but I highly suspect that the general alignment would be on the neutral axis...). --EldritchNumen 16:34, 30 November 2006 (MST)

Agreed, LG seems to un-human. Changed. --Green Dragon 18:17, 30 November 2006 (MST)
