Fantasy Occupations & Signs (d20)
The d20 Modern game introduced an occupation system that adds minor advantages to characters while providing a lot depth. Characters have a background¸ and they gain benefits from their occupation past making a simple skill roll. Unfortunately¸ the occupations are very specific to the modern setting¸ as most reference skills and feats that don't translate well to the fantasy setting. This profession system is the Fantasy version of the modern occupation system. It fleshes out the things a character's profession skill stands for¸ and gives the character's life before she became an adventurer a little more meaning. The occupations presented in this PDF include: Academic Wizard Adventurer City Guard Clergy Farmer Hedge Wizard Hospitality Worker Noble Pickpocket Sailor Samanera Squire Troubadour And Woodsman The second section of this PDF deals with Astrological signs and a way to introduce them into your campaign. The sign under which a person was born can be very significant. The fact that practically every newspaper published in the US has a horoscope section speaks to the fact that even if we don't believe that the position of the stars effects us¸ we'd very much like to. The mechanism for including astrology into your games is simple by design. Two moons¸ Luna and Io¸ travel through the thirteen zodiac houses. The moon Luna grants a minor bonus when it is in a character's house¸ and the moon Io bestows a minor penalty. Several methods of tracking the moon's location during a given adventure are also presented. ; More Products from Skortched Urf' Studios...
