One of your players is clearly Cohen the Barbarian.

And the best part? The Guild of Assassins refuse to take a contract on him. He, a street kid from the slums, single handedly best the rich and elites finest trained killers.... But playing dirty and laying boobie traps.

Vetinari: everything I do is a carefully calculated move to keep the city running efficiently

To be fair, you can’t carefully calculate Vimes. Vimes is a shotgun solution that you point in the general direction of a problem, and he’ll solve the problem and anything in the blast radius of that problem

That’s an interesting one, the parallels between Detritus’s crossbow and Vimes himself are not something I’d ever have considered otherwise. The Piecemaker/Keeper Of Thee Kinge’s Piece. Both known for leaving holes in walls.

Vimes has canonically forbidden Detritus from using the Piecemaker on people (and presumably also dwarves, trolls, etc). That means it’s a weapon against property, which often translates to being a weapon against power.
