bodyguard
- noun Someone who has made an arrangement with a (usually
higher-level) persona to
come to their aid in the event of attack; sometimes. If this happens regularly, or to a mage on a wiz
run, it is regarded as a form of cheating by some wizzes, even
though strictly speaking it isn't illegal. Anyone
making wiz
while being bodyguarded, though, will undoubtedly be given the
cold shoulder for some time, since they have effectively
sneaked to wiz; if they
have a BB/BS, they could required to do
a lot more work before finally being recommended for perming.
The use of bodyguards is sometimes an outward manifestation of
multi-lining, although it can be a natural
consequence of having anti-PK houses.
