Obviously, there are things I can't discuss until SK is released, but I
think I can expand your table for professions in the New Hrestoli Church
without breaking any rules. It will be one of our aims in SK to maximise
the range of professions which exist in each class, so that as many PCs
as possible can advance through the system without having to betray the
basic character concept. Using information largely from the old
Genertela Book and from TotRM#13 the table would be:
Group................Farmer........Knight........Wizard...........Noble
Populace.............Various
Military.............Soldier.......Knight........Grand Knight.....Lord
Military
Religion/Magic.......Acolythist....Chaplain?.....Wizard...........Lord
Spiritual
Political............Squire......................Administrator?...Lord
Temporal
Under your main table you say for women 'Yes, only for selected'.
Assuming that by this you mean that women can advance through the
classes only in certain professions (for example, the healer in Four
Scrolls says that she hopes to become a knight, but won't be allowed to
fight in real battles) then I'd agree. However, its worth noting that,
as the Hero Wars approach, more and more exceptions to this rule will
come to light. Heroes are, by their nature, exceptional, and female ones
will be able to join fully military cults such as that of St Talor if
they wish.
