Trials
In a first for the game, Mlle Morgane Le Fay will be on trial at the start of January on the charge of “Witchcraft, Aiding an enemy Spy and Beguiling His Majesty through use of the Dark Arts which collectively all adds up to a further charge of TREASON too!” CPS Thierry Toothpick will prosecute (from the front) and the NPC Minister of State will act as judge.
Class 7 favours (and/or bribes) are needed to influence the verdict (class 9 to commute the sentence if Morgane is found guilty). No witnesses can be called in this instance, but all players may contribute to the fun.
