Editing Kill Order (section)

==Effects==
Signing a kill order generally causes large numbers of unstable bounty hunters to attack the target, forcing the [[heroes]] to work to keep them from killing each other.<ref name=":0" /><ref name=":2" /> Being under a kill order makes the act of killing the subject one of self defense.<ref name="SV1">'''Agent Smith:''' When Taylor was talking to Miss Militia, she (MM) mentioned that Cherish had a "kill order" on her.<br><br>I've been thinking about that a lot lately, there are plenty of times when use of deadly force is authorized against criminals, but shooting someone in the head while they're tied up and helpless is pretty much universally recognized as murder.<br><br>My headcannon on Kill Orders is that rather than a legally signed writ of execution, someone with a kill order is just recognized as posing an immediate credible threat to the wellbeing of everyone in the country at all times.

Surrender was theoretically possible for the target of a kill order.<ref name="11c" />
===Bounties===
Kill orders carry a bounty funded by public donations. Criminals can collect this bounty from the [[PRT]] without fearing arrest.<ref name=":0" /><ref name=":2" />
