People

On the Discworld, you will encounter a diuerse amount of its inhabitants. Most of these will be trying to kill you and/or steal your money - they should be avoided at all costs. If you should come face-to-face with any dangerous people, you should rotate 180 degrees and put one foot quickly in front of the other until you are safely out of harm's way.
