You have always wanted to help people and you can. You need to provide justice to the world. Not by slaying foul beasts, but by protecting the falsely accused. Many souls have been killed, but these people are hopefully not a part of it. See through the lies to find the truth. Are they guilty or happened to be at the wrong place at the wrong time? There is no way to know unless you try to help.

Every lawyer has a specific area they studied if they don’t do general stuff. Roll a d8 to see where you studied or choose it yourself:

Feature: Testimony
Force a target creature to give a testimony of their experiences. Then you can do an insight check to see if specific parts of what they said were lies. If you ultimately find nothing in the testimony, you can save this testimony for later use. You can also press more later on if you get new evidence.

Suggested Characteristics
You try to help others, no matter the gravity of the situation. You always try to decipher the truth, no matter if it’s bad for your case or not. It matters not if you’re client is guilty or not, as long as the prosecution prevents you from lying, the true criminal will be uncovered.
