Oblivion Guard
A cop who knows when you're trying to sneak up on him. If you don't crouch, he'll beat you, lock you up, or take your gold if you’re not a dumbass.
I crouched. He didn’t see me. I kept my gold.
He beat me up. I didn’t crouch. I got locked up.
I bribed him. He took my gold and let me go. I was lucky.
