Excisemen are probably the least popular citizens of the old world. no matter how benevolent the goverment might be, or how many great public works it may undertake, the fact remains that no one likes paying taxes and the tax collectors bear thr brunt of this resentment. none the less, the are highly necessary branch of the civil service and no government could survive long without them, however excisemen tend to lack job satifaction and are seldom well paid. this means that some inevitably become corrupt, while others go to the other extreme in the faitn hope of securing promotion. Your skills - oral debating, mathemetics, reading and writing, advanced calculus, law knowledge, embezzlement. Your equipment - Leather jacket, large dagger, writing kit, abacus, between 6 and 10 gold crowns.

Tomb robbers differ from grave robbers in that they are interested in the valuables that might have been buried along with a body, rather than the body itself. although very few burials in the old world include valuable goods these days, there are many ancient burial sites which may contain treasure and the tomb robbers speciality is locating and plundering these sites. the richest treasures belong to the fabled tombs of araby, but there are less well known tombs in the old world. often, places such as these are revered and protected by the local inhabitants, so the tomb robber must operate secretly or under cover of darkness. it is not unknown for rich tombs to have a number of traps and other devices to thwart tomb robbers and to enjoy a long and successful career they must learn to locate and disarm them. few survive long enough. Your skills - rural concealment, urban concealment, rural silent move, urban silent move, spot trap, secret signs - thieves, secret language - thieves tongue. Your equipment - crowbar, short sword, lantern, leather jacket, 10 yards of rope, 4 sacks.

Not everyone in the old world is a heroic adventurer. many of those who live in the coastal areas and around lakes make their living by being fisherman. being a fisherman is not a bad life, there is plenty to eat nearly all the time, even if it is always fish. but in hard times, or when it is so hot that the catch goes off before it can be transported to market, fishermen often gather around the quays and in the dickside inns, where they dream of becoming adventurers, sailors, explorers and most of all rich. most are content to dream, but a few actually turn to adventuring in pursuit of their ambitions. You have the following skills - fishing, sailing, swimming, river lore, boat building, cartography Your equipment - leather jacket, small fishing boat

The engineers guild is a powerul but secretive body, its struture, rules and the bizarre and sometimes distasteful rituals it employes are founded on centuries of tradition. it had a deep mistrust of invention and innovation, if anything had been worthwhile, they maintain the guild would have tried it centuries ago. because of this and because of the tight control which the guild which the guild maintains over its members, it is not unusla for imaginative young dwarves to leave or be expelled from the guild and seek employment outside of it. the technical terms for these individuals is "wetbacks", although it is unwise to call them that to their face. wetbacks can be found working for a number of welthy patrons in the old world, and the guild is increasingly worried about and the undermining of its position and authority. guild members and wetbacks rarely treat each other with anything but hostility. Your skills - carpentry, cart driving, engineering, reading and writing, secret signs 0 dwarven guild, trap setting, smithing, trap spotting, metallurgy. Your equipment - dagger, leather jacket, tool bag, hammer and nails, 4 chisels, pick, saw, iron spikes, tongs, pliers, 10 yeards of heavy wire, hand axe, guild ring (unless a wetback).

Your choice is completely random and fair. Choose another number if you are not happy. Last edited on 04:59 pm by cynicalninja |

UsedToRide wrote: 27 Congratulations you are a mercenary. Mercenaries fight for money, the spoils of war and the taste of blood. All mercenaries dream of riches, for most of them the reality consists of an early death and an unmarked grave. mercenaries roam the old world, from one war to another, inevitably someone will hire their swords to settle a grievance. Rich nobles, merchants and others take on mercenaries to bring an argument to a swift conclusion, the old world kingdoms generate enough conflict to keep many thousands of mercenaries fully employed. Eventually, however, the wiser ones realise that there is no crock of gold for the hired fighter, and so they turn to adventuring for variety, or in search of greater rewards. Your skills - disarm opponent, dodge blow, secret language - battle tongue, strike mighty blow, strike to stun, cart driving, animal care, animal riding. Your equipment - Crossbow with ammunition, metal breastplate armour, shield, large dagger.

Your skills - Disarm opponent, dodge blow, specialist weapons - fist weapons, flail weapons, parrying weapons, two handed weapons, strike mighty blow, strike to injure, very resilient, very strong. Your equipment - Shield, chain mail shirt, knuckledusters, flail, two handed axe.

Brian wrote: 33 Congratulations you are an outlaw ! Outlaws are people driven from mainstream society or who choose to live outside its laws. in practice this can mean a great many people. some outlaw strongholds are quite powerful and can effectively become independant petty kingdoms. outlaws tent to identify themselves with the peasantry and the common folk upon whom they rely for support and protection although there are outlaw nobles and princes, disowned by their families and fighting guerilla war against their former homeland. outlaws generally confine their attentions to the wealthy and the minions of the establishment, the fact that these are more likely to be worth robbing has never escaped them, although they will attack just about anyone in times of hardship. outlaws prefer to work in forests or areas of rough terrain, where there is plenty of cover. their favourite tactic is the ambush, and some make quite a speciality of leaping out of trees. Their rugged outdoor life makes them fairly tough, but it can be wearing on the constitution, many outlaws have almost permament coughs and severe skin conditions, and those who live to any age are invaribly riddled with arthritis. Your skills - rural concealment, disarm opponent, dodge blow, climb sheer surface, secret language - thieves tongue, trap setting, rural silent movement, trap spotting, strike mighty blow, strike to stun, cart driving, horseriding, animal care, marksmanship. Your equipment - Composite bow and ammunition, shield, reinforced leather jerkin. Last edited on 05:48 pm by cynicalninja |
