Marshal Image

You have sworn an oath to enforce the law. You are given more or less free reign to manage judiciary operations and use whatever level of force you deem reasonable.

 
Skill Proficiencies: Intimidation, Investigation
Tool Proficiencies: Firearms
Languages: One of your choice
Equipment: A set of Common Clothes, a set of Traveling Clothes, a standard-issued marshal weapon, bullets, a law enforcement insignia, law enforcement credentials (paperwork), a money pouch with 15 GP
 
Feature: Law Enforcer

You are a legitimate enforcer of the law. Local leaders will recognize and defer to your authority so long as you don't abuse it too badly, and will freely provide information on fugitives, suspected or known criminals, and criminal operations upon request. Perhaps your character hails from Baldur's Gate, and was hired by the Flaming Fist mercenary group, or by the Lords Alliance to aid in seeking any agents of evil that threaten the cities and nations they represent. Work with your DM to establish a major city or nation that your character was credentialed for law enforcement duties as a Marshal.
