    So I'm curious, what would you say your character's occupation is? If they're multi-skilled, fill in what you think their MAIN skill is. If you have more than one, fill in more than one option. Please only fill out the poll for current characters. That is, ones that are seeing use or are planned to see use in the near future.

    This might help work out where the gaps are, figure out way of creating events for a variety of skills, maybe create jobs IC. Also, I just wanna know.

    Note: If your character is totally unskilled, and it WASN'T an intentional choice on your part, please go rethink their design and come back later.

    Sol pretty much only hunts for artifacts and sells them. He doesn't work for anyone but himself.

    Sarah is mainly a gun for hire, but she also operates a small scale farm so she can eat food.

    I was actually going to put farmer but there's a limit to how many options you can have, unfortunately. Also, please make people aware that this thread exists, it'd be nice to get as many people to fill it out as possible.

    Cateth specializes primarily in the chemical and biological fields. Creating everything from medicines, antidotes, poisons, to chemicals both helpful and harmful.

    While nowhere near as strong as her primary focus, she is also a capable mechanical worker, in general machinery, vehicles, and robotics.

    Her talent for creation however, primarily only lies in the chemical/biological aspect, most of her feats in mechanical engineering lie in repair, reverse engineering, or modification.

    She can take something apart, learn how it works, make it better, and then make more, but outright new creation is often beyond her.


    Her pride and joy are her arm mounted 'cannons' highly specialized 'pressurized pumps' altered and modded to the point of being able to contain and channel the chemical reactions she can design.
