"Okay, but I'm not going to spend my time hanging around with you. Give me his description and I'll go do the deed."
"Erm…okay…" Calvin says a little surprised. He was probably under the impression that you'd walk around with him like some bodyguard. He gives you the guard's description and tells you where he normally patrols.

You head over to the Merchant's district which is pretty busy, but you see the guard, Calvin described. For a moment you don't know how you're going to be able to kill him, but after following him, he takes a short cut through an alley. That's when you strike.

CITY GUARD
SKILL: 10
STAMINA: 15

If you're a rogue you were able to sneak up on him and may do 2 STAMINA points of damage to him before combat starts. If you're a Wizard you may use an Invisibility spell to get the same effect.

If you win, Azoth decides to chime in finally.

"Well, you certainly did a number on him, thought might I suggest that you go back to Calvin with proof? He might not believe that you did the job or just be difficult and not pay you."
"What did you have in mind? Take his helmet?"
"Nah, I was thinking that you should cut off his ears and nose."
"What?"
"Sure, you'll bring back proof, plus Calvin will be so damn intimidated that you can ask for more money. If you're going to go this route you have to prove you are not the one to mess with."
"Didn't I do that already by kicking his ass and making him cry before?"
"Hey, it never hurts to reinforce such impressions."
