A Lawyer's job is to present the evidence he is given in the best possible light and is allowed to ignore and disclude evidence as he likes.

A Lawyer doesn't prove anything, if someone is guilty and the evidence says they are guilty... then appart from an abortion of justice the person should be guilty no matter what the discrepancy between them is.

So I don't quite see where this lying buisness comes from.

Is it from the fact that lawyers are required by law not to state the guilt of their client?

But lawyers have money, while lye makers get to sleep in a muddy corner of the barracks and hope the wrestlers don't step on them too much.

Lyers, Soapers, and Cheesemakers are awesome because you don't have to feel guilty about making them your ragtag group of hilariously undertrained militiafolk.

Hang on, lyers make the ingredient for potash, which is the ingredient for pearlash, which is in turn used to make clear and crystal glass, the prior of which I know to be magma proof in furniture form (not craft or instrument form).  Not sure about crystal glass.

Alternately: The Brick Testament. It's a really fun look at what the bible would look like if interpreted literally. With Legos.
Just so I remember

You can make a weapon that uses these skills and thus gives experience. Make a weapon called a Lawsuit and have it use the Lying skill, and there you go!

The Lawyer sues the Goblin in the head with the +Steel Lawsuit+!
It explodes into gore!

Then make a "Slapstick" that uses comedian skill. Priceless!
