The People's Constables

  These very special individuals maintain law and order and assess fines against offenders for trivial crimes not worthy of the time of magistrates.  Their appointment began in 575 CY, following a suggestion of Glodreddi that was approved by the other Directors.
  In brief, the large majority of the 200 or so People's Constables are appointed by the Directors upon payment of 10 GP for a years license and a personal reference from some reputable person.  The license is jealously guarded by the new constable and such documents are very rarely stolen or forged, the penalties are too great.
  The constables are then empowered to fine offenders for trivial crimes such as obstruction, threatening language, slanderous utterances against ordinary persons, emptying foul refuse into the street and so on.  Such fines vary from as little as 1 CP to a maximum of 10 SP.

Examples of Fines

  Persons not part of the Greyhawk armed forces, found to be marching in formation through the Foreign Quarter shall be fined 5 copper pieces per person per day.
