Masterful Jurist (trait)

This character is a rare talent indeed, and has risen far above their colleagues. Their mastery of the law makes them highly sought after by the great and powerful of Wardenite society, and their opinions are likely read and discussed by scholars across the Wardenite world. They know all the tricks in the book, and can be counted on to run circles around lesser legal minds, even mixing a bit of theater into the normally stoic proceedings of Wardenite law courts where appropriate. Jurists of this level of expertise can usually be found in competition with one another for High Judgeships. Their unique set of skills makes them dangerous enough that local lords will keep a close eye on them - woe betide an unprepared ruler who runs afoul of a master jurist.
