Old Occupation Titles

[Exquisite Dead Guy]

I happened upon this website when doing a search for a job title I was unfamiliar with. It comes in handy for adding a little flavor to city encounters.

I found a site like that, but for medieval German jobs, and it formed the basis of my surname list for my campaign.

This site you've found it awesome. I'll definitely be using it, thanks!

A quick copy and paste into a Google Doc and I now have a quick list of occupations for when I am creating all sorts of encounters. Thanks for the link! I am starting to assemble a collection of documents like this as a general gaming resource.

Honey dipper isn't as great a job as it sounds.

Interesting. I think I can translate that to 3.5 or some other system I'll actually use. Shouldn't be too hard.

In hindsight I think Shroud of Bees would have been cooler... The square is obscurred with a cloud of buzzing bees...

I was thinking about the smoke they use to keep them away at times... but Shroud of Bees sounds more badarse...

Nob Thatcher = win.

Honey dipper was really great too

I dunno, Robert Plant is pretty cool.
