In Ultima Online, the Royal Forged Pardon is a special item that allows players to remove all murder counts from their character. Introduced as part of the Vice vs Virtue (VvV) system, it is a one-time use item that requires the player to be part of VvV to use it. Once used, it eliminates the player's murder counts, helping them revert from a "red" status to a "blue" status, which can be beneficial for gaining certain in-game advantages. The Royal Forged Pardon is shard-bound, meaning it cannot be transferred between shards, and is considered a valuable item due to its ability to completely clear a player's criminal record in the game​
