Success

Who could have foreseen?

Description summary:
The third paragraph varies depending on your experience as a .

BarristerThird Paragraph
0 – 4The art, you find, is to provide for an even more unpleasant trial […] Your solution is haphazard and your idea of legal proceedings might not impress any London judge, but the effect is still generally enough to make the newcomers turn back.
5 – 7The art, you find, is to provide for an even more unpleasant trial if they stay. Your solution is a bit rocky, and there are a handful who find a loophole within the loophole, but the effect turns many of the newcomers back.
12 – 24The art, you find, is to provide for an even more unpleasant trial if they stay. Your solution draws on some experience at the Evenlode, and the effect is enough to make the newcomers turn back.
25 – 49The art […] is to provide for an even more unpleasant trial if they stay. Your solution […] Trials by Ordeal, with punishments drawn at random from edicts of the First City. It is called archaic; it is called barbaric; it is called obscene. It does the trick.
50 – 74The art […] is to provide for an even more unpleasant trial if they stay. Your solution […] a Trial by Ordeal and Confiscation, a […] mix of Cedar and Infernal laws. A wealthy man going into such a trial tends to emerge impoverished and intriguingly scarred.
75 – 200[…] Trial by Ordeal and Confiscation, a […] mix of Cedar and Infernal laws. You rationalise […] by reference to Second City precedents […] illegal to discuss. No one is even able to hire a barrister […] because […] the argument […] will inevitably lead to their own arrest.

Failure

Mingling

[...]

As soon as they live here, [...] they are no longer covered by the Bazaar's bail. [...]

You might try them here instead, but the city's enforcement is not strong enough. They settle in little communities, mocking the whole idea of Hinterlandcity.png [City Name].
