Select one Profession 

Spend some or all of your 14 Starter XP points on skills, Heart, and Will.

Many professions have a Unique Skill that they get for free. If you select a Hybrid profession (Iconoclast, Prepper, Martial Artist, or Agent) you may select any one skill off that Profession’s list for free. Hybrid Professions have the flexibility of choosing their starting skill and have one more skill on their list than non-Hybrid Professions.

Any PC may start with a small positive Reputation with up to one of the nearby Townships. This can have any reasonable justification but must be approved by the worldbuilding team based on a written and submitted background. You may also have a negative starting Reputation with any number of NPC Townships, no writeup required, but you do need to make sure those negative Reputations are properly marked on your character sheet.
