Defining a Civilian

  • Bored—The typical status of civilians. Prone to stopping for idle chats with anyone, admiring views and artwork or generally not paying too much attention.
    • FOV: 90 degrees—Notice: -1
  • Panicked—Looking everywhere because something is not right, and they know it. A panicked civilian has either spotted something unusual but not yet identified it as a thief - or they have been alerted by a guard. A panicked civilian's first action will be to attack if they are a soldier or mage, otherwise they will flee to the nearest guard and alert them.
