    Some times it can be a bit difficult to figure out what an RP character's job is. I'm proposing that the staff add in a small tab in the character application asking what his/her job is.I think this could only help, and would add a bit more diversity to the app itself. Example:

    Profession(s):

    It's obvious what my job is.
    I go round telling people to buy baked goods.
    I like the idea though. Maybe add a similar thing under the forum profile too (may not be possible due to Xenforo)

    I wanted to suggest the same thing. But I was thinking of "Occupation" instead of "Professions".

    While it might be a simple enough thing for the common folk, there are those like our dear Tom who transition frequently or hold many positions at a time;

    Is it not simply easy enough to ask what the person does for a living in character when you RP with them?

    I complete and conduct a variety of lrh-based activities under a variety of pretenses, all leading to various outcomes which in turn aid those involved.

    I'm not too keen on this. The profession of a character becomes bleedingly obvious in the app through life stories and such, and if not can easily be written in. This just seems unnecessary; arbitrary, even.
