Prisoner Carts
itemLarge wooden carts reinforced with metal bars specifically for transporting prisoners. Used by obligators and soldiers to move groups of skaa as examples or for execution. Enclosed with bars rather than open wagon style.
In the brutal regime of the Final Empire, Prisoner Carts emerge as grim symbols of skaa oppression, their metal-barred wooden frames hauling condemned laborers to public executions or labor camps under obligator oversight. Though their role is most prominently featured in the early era of The Final Empire, these carts underscore the Lord Ruler's iron-fisted control, with no significant evolution or reappearance in later books amid the cataclysmic societal upheavals. Their stark, enclosed design serves as a haunting reminder of the skaa's dehumanized existence before the rise of rebellion and allomantic warfare reshapes the world.
