[@Flagg] Slightly confused. You mention the prince's bodyguard is dead, but then you also suggest them as an option as a playable archetype. But otherwise I'll keep an eye on this, maybe.

Good point. That whole scene is more window dressing than set-in-stone. Also, the wizard might be wrong and members of the guard may have survived.

Bodyguards of the prince are def playable. How characters survived the coup will be a part of the CS process.
