The '''Prison guard''' is a non-unique but non-randomly-generated [[monster]] added in the [[Convict|Convict patch]]. Prison guards are generated only in [[Convict quest|the quest]], as a challenge to the Convict seeking the [[Iron Ball of Liberation]].

When a prison guard confronts the [[player]], it will demand a [[bribe]] ("The prison guard demands ... to avoid re-arrest"). The expected bribe is the player's [[experience level]] * 500 [[zorkmid]]s. If the bribe is paid, the guard will become peaceful (but still contemptuous: "Good. Now beat it, scum!") and leave the player alone.
