The Center of Kol's Plaza
The sound of falling water echoes from the stone buildings surrounding
the plaza. The area is damp with moisture, as the flowing water from the
fountain drips and sprays onto the tiles beneath foot. A mosaic of
multicolored tiles, battered by centuries of foot and cart traffic,
stretches the plaza's entire length. When looking north, Kol's Moot
encompasses the horizon.
It's cloudy, cool, and very windy.
Obvious exits: n e s w nw ne sw se
An ornate fountain crowned with a statue dominates the center of the plaza square.
A gargantuan male giant is waiting here, looking around with a scowl.
A stern looking council-guard is serving here.
An imposing Persuader council-guard is here.

I don't know about the North, but Nytomi used to order guards in Zhenshi to go mode kill because she figured it was cheaper than having her war party looted.

Yeah, that's the NPCs being on mode kill by pc influence. Not for the same reasons.

Actually, nubcakes, this person died because the gargantuan giant is just a normal NPC, not a guard. And it jumped in and murdered this vile criminal. Vigilantism. That giant is the Moot's Frank Castle. P.S. Seriously, what is the deal with there being like 15 guards in that room at all times? Granted they suck, but still.
