Barrister
A courtroom advocate wields case law like a weapon, citing precedent to undercut an opponent's next argument before they can make it.
Barristers may serve as criminal prosecutors or legal advocates, defending the rights of those accused of crimes or named as defendants in civil cases.
Cite Precedent [Single Action] (Auditory, Linguistic) The barrister uses existing case law to undermine their opposition. If they succeed at a DC 20 Legal Lore check, they impose a –2 circumstance penalty on the next Diplomacy check an opponent attempts in a legal argument. Any further attempts to Cite Precedent fail until a new topic with different precedents is being argued.
