Description Trial by Combat Mug
In most cases, you have little to fear in a properly functioning court as long as you are innocent. But what do you do when you know that as a cunning schemer you have no chance and are also guilty? Flee? Impossible, the dungeon is too well guarded. Hope for a lenient sentence? Ha, nice try. No, the only thing that seems sensible in this situation is to stay calm and demand a trial by combat.
If you ever find yourself in such a situation, you shouldn't get your hands dirty but instead send one of your henchmen into the fight as a proxy. It's best to choose someone who doesn't care about rules and honor and makes short work of his opponent. Meanwhile, you stand on the sidelines and leisurely sip wine from your "Trial by Combat" mug. Sounds like a solid plan, right? In gratitude for our tips, you owe us a favor. And we've heard that you always repay your debts...
