==Finisher ==
Polis executes his opponent after knocking them:
Name 	Description
Execute	User pins down opponent and slices their throat with their blade.
== Trivia==
*Killing him will give the player negative reputation with Etrea. (Despite Polis saying that he was not liked by the etreans.)
*During the event there's a bug where his face mask changes to a different pattern than the one he has while he is static.
* Though Polis can be killed, doing so will not affect him, as he will respawn back in his usual spot and act like nothing happened.
*The price of the Gold Ring he gave used to be 25 notes. Now it sells for 14 notes, however the price may vary due to quality stars.
*Whenever you try to spook him with a Hallowtide Mask, he doesn't get spooked and instead just says from these lines: "I may be old, but I'm still brave, young one." "Nice try."
*When having Jus Karita as a starting weapon Polis will say "How strange that our Paths should cross again so soon..." and does not give you a Gold Ring or any other dialogue.
*Despite teaching Jus Karita and donning a Justicar Armour, he favours a Greatsword in combat instead.
*Polis does use Jus Karita mantras, despite wielding a Greatsword.
*His name historically means "Greek city state."
*Polis has an actual obtainable build if you utilize Shrine of Order, with all of his Talents (except Audacity) and all Mantras being obtainable.
