Karma is a measure of the character's lawfulness. Various actions may increase or decrease karma.

At negative karma, the player is treated as a criminal, attacked on sight by guards, and many shopkeepers will not do business with you. This can be temporarily alleviated by casting incognito, either as a spell or from a scroll. Vendors in the thieves' guild reliably have scrolls of incognito in stock.

The only safe haven for a criminal is the town of Derphy.
