PK/H alternative part 3: Jail

Every innocent kill will accrue a Kill Count for a murderer.

If penned, a murderer will be consigned to the Barloque Jail for 24 hours per innocent kill. A message will be given to the server when this happens:

**The notorious murderer, Trollington, has been captured by the valiant citizens of Meridian. He has been consigned to 4 days in jail for his crimes.**

Murderers also suffer a flat pen equivalent each day they are in jail due to atrophy and the harsh conditions. While they do not lose items, they will lose 4% spells and 4% skills each day.

Murderers wary of the Crown's justice are advised to make sure those kills are worth it when they go hunting newbies. There is no avoiding the eventual retribution.

This is offered as an alternative to #299. If a guild of reds truly wants 'built pvp', as they say, kills will be few and far between. If they're really just rolling newbies, that karma will catch up with them eventually. Enough kills will pretty much equal a real jail sentence at some point.

Your kill count (for this purpose) is reset after your sentence. Murderers will always spend a minimum of 1 day in jail, to keep pens from being pointless / irrelevant.
