 +//Political leaders, prominent merchants, and crime lords of the independent [[the_verge|Verge]] colonies are always looking for a strong right arm. Thus, professional bodyguards can always find work.  While many bodyguards spend the majority of their time watching out for their employer'​s personal safety, other bodyguards function as  free-roving security consultants who ferret out dangerous plots, work in advance of their client'​s movements, or check up on known troublemakers.//​
 +
 +//**In the Verge:** The Verge is crawling with shady merchants who need protection. [[rigunmor_star_consortium|Rigunmor]] traders, [[austrin-ontis_unlimited|A-O]] arms dealers, Lucullan smugglers, and Alaundrin nobles are all in the market for this hero's services.//
  
 The Bodyguard makes security his specialty. He knows how to keep someone safe and how to provide personal protection to the utmost degree. The Bodyguard can be more than a security specialist, however. He might be part private detective, part hired muscle. He might serve as a driver or other personal aide, in addition to being ready at all times to offer protection to the client he watches out for. The Bodyguard has the ability to avoid trouble, and when trouble can't be avoided, he can protect a client through a variety of other means. The Bodyguard makes security his specialty.
