How do you think handle the Hellknights low-level-crime in Magnimar? e.g. would they transfer an varisian petty criminal to the city watch or could they punish him themselves?
Hellknights in Varisia are not a large presence, although they are quite obvious and visible and notable. But there's not a lot of them. In fact, the majority of the Hellknights in Varisia are associated mostly with Korvosa. Since there's so few of them, they probably wouldn't bother with low-level crime at all; they'd leave that to the law-enforcement of Magnimar itself to handle, while they focus solely on crimes that directly impact their own areas of interest. Which, in Magnimar, tends to be the crimes brought to their attention by the city, or larger crimes that are going unpunished.
Put another way, if there was so much petty crime in the city that the Hellknights were getting annoyed, they'd actually probably go after the obviously corrupt or lazy city watch instead of the criminals.
