A commoner can be anything they would like to be. Some jobs fall into the categories defined by the guilds:
- Merchants
- Metal Workers
- Carpenters
- Jewellers
- Assassins
- Stone Masonry

Some jobs are created by working under a noble:
- Miner
- Farmer
- Stable Hand
- Shepherd

Some are created by necessities of the people:
- Baker
- Tailor
- Butcher
- Hunter
- Forester
- Fisherman
- Doctor

And still others are created to get rich:
- Bankers
- Tax Collectors
- Peddlers
- Traders
These are not limits to careers, but they are good for inspiration. If you want to be a commoner to be a rebel, you must still have a job unless you would like to be listed as unemployed (whereas you will probably starve)

Thanks Aleyne! ;D

Omg, this looks amazing! It appeals so well to the theatre freak in me! Can I be a duke?
Name: Alf “the Crude” of Basburg
Age: 27
Gender: Male
Appearance: 6'5“ - curly red hair - thick, plaited red beard - impudent green eyes - muscled arms covered in hair - hates his official garb and whenever possible, wears a white sailor's blouse and brown cotton trousers
Personality: He's kind of a jokester, you know the kind of person you'd be like ”Oh *, Alf's had too much coffee this morning“ about. He has a very, domineering personality. E.g. he knows he's in charge and he makes sure you know it too. But not in a bad way, he's just very assuming.

Title: Duke
Land Owned (Optional): Basburg

Talents: His favorite pastime is sailing, like, whenever a day's open, he'll be out on the water.
Place of Residence: Alf lives in the castle in Rykesborough with his wife, Tailitiu and twin infant sons, Khan and Yorick.
Backstory: Alf grew up as any other royal would, with a silver spoon in his mouth. However he was always the black sheep of the family, not necessarily acting as a royal should, earning him the nickname ”the Crude" from his siblings. Unfortunately, it stuck. Alf did mellow out a little though when he settled down and married a princess from the neighbouring kingdom. Not much though.
Relatives: Ala of Geringridge (younger sister) and the monarch (older brother).

I love it! Accepted. Also, the Monarch is purposely gender vague (so anyone could be them)

Would you like to RP Ala visiting Alf in Rykesborough for some deal? I want to get a feel of them interacting as siblings

Ala's Official Application
Name: Ala, Duchess of Geringridge
Age: 26
Gender: Female
Appearance: Elegant; chocolate brown hair in a single braid down her back, green eyes, 5' 9", younger features
Personality: Can be stubborn as a rock but is fair. She likes it when people are comfortable around her but she also knows when it's best to put on airs. She attempts to understand the life of a commoner, but sometimes miserably fails.

Title: Duchess
Land Owned (Optional): Geringridge

Talents: Sword-fighting, Diplomacy, Judiciary Matters, Economics, Macro-Management
Place of Residence:
Backstory: Always loved to unofficially train with the castle guards in her youth and it kept her from being stuck up like other nobility might be. The Duchy of Geringburg was given to her because of her expertise at management. The region was on the edge of economic collapse after overspending on the city of Lynnes to impress traders from other countries and Duchies.
Relatives: The Monarch and Duke Alf of Basburg

Name: Kestrel “Animalcharmer”
Age: 14
Gender: Female
Appearance: Long, braided brown hair, grey eyes, taller then average but not by much
Personality: She tends to be rather shy, socially awkward. She's smart, but she doesn't show it much.

Job: Stable-hand (Generally works with the birds of prey & the pet birds)
Talents: She is incredibly good with animals, and understanding them. In fact, she's often called to help other's understand “Why on earth does my horse keep bucking!”
Place of Residence: Fenmouth
Backstory: Kestrel was born to two stablehands, who quickly taught her the ways of animals. As soon as she surpassed them in knowledge and smarts, she was encouraged to take a falconry job with a baroness (Ina?) who needed some help training the falcons. After an impressive display of knowledge and kindness, she was hired. She lives in a small room off the atrium, where she tends the Baroness's many collected pet songbirds, along with her other duties as a falconer.


Can I have two characters?

Name: Ina Camilia
Age: 28
Gender: Female
Appearance: Tall, with long dark brown hair and brown eyes.
Personality: She is very kind, socially-adept with commoners, although not much with other nobility. She loves animals, although she isn't nessisarly good with them.

Title: Baroness
Land Owned (Optional): A plot of land just north of Fenmouth. It has a small section of forest, and rolling hills.

Talents: She is good at understanding commoners, and she is quite adept with a bow.
Place of Residence: Fenmouth
Backstory: As soon as she took over the lands, she immediately made changes, adding her aviary and re-vising the stable. She added more, and better houses for the commoners who work for her. Although often called “Naive” for it, Ina is quite friendly with the locals of Fenmouth, especially those that work for her, and she knows them quite well.
Relatives: Her father was a baron, and she was granted the title of baroness after her father died with no other heirs, and her mother disappeared.

Thank you! I meant to put “older sibling” but it was late at night and my fingers didn't agree with my brain.

Sure, that'll be fun. I'll go make a thread.

Name: Douglas Brown
Age: 24
Gender: Male
Appearance: A brown robe covers his body with his arms underneath the robe. The hood surrounds all of his head but his face. He has a small face and and nose with one green eye and brown eye. Under his robe is black velvet shirts and pants, but is hidden under the robe most of the time. He has simple brown leather shoes.
Personality: Cunning, Ruthless, and Chaotic, yet charming

Job: Assassin
Talents: Stealth, Hand to hand combat, and Strategic
Place of Residence: Fenmouth
Backstory: His great, great grandfather used to be a Nobleman, but he and his family was banished to the ranks of commoners. He started a group of assassins within his family to get revenge. Douglas was born into this clan and from a young age trained to be an Assassin. He developed ruthlessness, and skills in stealth and hand to hand combat as a result. Now with his fancy knife he goes around looking for hirers and people to assassinate for his own ideals.

(I'll just use this since high ranking officers are technically ‘nobility’)

Name: Takarden “Owlface” Julius
Age: 39
Gender: Male
Appearance: Grey, short and ruffled hair, and an aged face, with a chiseled chin, and grooved features, well muscled arms, littered with sword scars, a balanced body size, but not very tall. Coming in at around 5' 6" he doesn't stand above his enemies. He has hazelnut eyes, which are wider, and give him the nickname of ‘Owlface’.

Personality: He can be rough and blunt, and sympathy is not his strong suit. He enjoys being peaceful and watching nature, ironically, he enjoys reading and loves to play chess, and has a soft spot for younger children, teaching them how to play chess, or fun sword fighting skills. He is known as the Grandfather of Darton in the Westbank area. His notable weakness is his strange introverted nature. While in the army he is definitely not a quiet officer, but he has struggles when trying to find smalltalk or discussion with others. He can be very solemn and sometimes has trouble listening.

Title: General of the Army
Land Owned (Optional): He owns a large portion of land east and across the river from Darton, a ‘gift’ given to him for his military successes.

Talents: Strategic mastermind, combat trained in the art of swords, very skilled at Chess, and a surprisingly good teacher, he is the very first person to ever successfully ‘dual wield’ swords.
Place of Residence: Farmhouse east of the Darton River.

Backstory: He grew up in a well paid home of a Tax Collector, and attended quite a few balls when he was younger. Contrary to his high quality life, he decided to join the army, and due to his families money, was able to gain higher ranks, and eventually worked his way to the top. His notable military successes have made him a hero to many in the land, but he doesn't enjoy boasting or using it to his advantage. When the Monarch gave him a reward for his outstanding success he chose a quiet and peaceful land area South-East of the kingdom, there he built a farm, and enjoys life peacefully training horses for combat or otherwise. His features and wide eyes got him the title of ‘Owlface’. It sounds demeaning, but to most of his opponents they remember the officer sitting on his horse surveying the battlefield, his sharp eyes pinpointing defensive weaknesses. The gaze an Owl gives a Mouse it's having for dinner. His most notable battles were those of the Fenmouth River Defensive, and the Rebellion at Lynnes. He is highly respected by many.

Relatives: He is not known to have had any siblings, and is the nephew of the previous Monarch, making him the Monarch's cousin.
