Suggestion: NPC trader defend their shops / or hire guards

Yesterday I got killed in the smithy by another player ...
without the smith noticing anything.

Is it possible to let the trader hire a watchdog or guard to protect their customers and themselves of course

Just as a reminder, if someone PK's you. Aka starts PvP without initiated roleplay and reason to, screenshot it, and send to one of the DMs. We might only be in alpha, but we don't appreciate PK'ing or trolls.

But I do like your concept, or atleast it inspires further systems of acts of violence, pick pocketing and alike if done nearby an NPC is stored in a system, perhaps more as witnesses rather than interfering (Unless that NPC is a Guard/Soldier/Mercenary type.)

Will look into dis.
