Guild: Knackers’ Guild. Each apprentice
must serve 9 years. A masterpiece must be produced
to become a journeyman. Once an apprentice
for 9 years, the knacker may make a skill check
as they craft their masterpiece. If passed at TH 36,
then they become a journeyman. If failed, then
they may begin crafting another masterpiece and
make another skill check in 2 days. The Aedile may
overrule any masterpiece skill check, because those
in the guild who review the apprentice may dislike
them or choose to keep them as an apprentice for
some corrupt reason.
For a journeyman to become a master, they
must be able financially to open their own shop,
and receive the approval of the guild. To receive
approval, they must pass a Persuasion skill check.
The TH begins at 30 and is decreased by 1 for every
period of 6 months in which the journeyman has
worked locally with the guild. The Aedile may overrule
this skill check or apply any modifier deemed
appropriate.
