Legend
Test your SKILL, if you succeed, then it finds its mark in the merchant's throat before he can say anything. He gurgles and falls. You manage to escape out the window, before his mercenaries come running. Lose 2 alignment points.
If you fail the dagger misses and he runs away screaming for help. You manage to escape out the window before help comes, but the damage is done. The merchant has seen your face and will report you to all his merchant buddies as well as the authorities. Chances are you won't even be able to step foot into a place of business in this city without trouble. Looks like you'll be doing all your shopping at the black market from now on. Mark down "Wanted Thief in Holgard" on your profile.
In either case you lose the dagger.
