Agent
Automatic
610
GrdChar
This order allows a character with agent skill to guard another character at the same location for the turn. The character’s agent rank is improved by 1-5 points when this order is given. A guard will try to stop assassination and kidnap attempts, as well as the theft of artifacts and the rescuing of characters from the guarded character. If another character makes such an attempt against the guarded character and the guard thwarts the attempt, then the guard's agent rank will be improved 1-5 points more for each thwarted attempt. A successful guard may kill, capture or injure the character making such an attempt, but, conversely, an unsuccessful guard may themselves be injured or killed. The success of the attempt is based on the agent ranks of the characters involved, with a guarding agent likely to be able to guard against a character with up to twice their agent rank.
