Weaver/Embroiderer
This occupation specializes in weaving and
embroidery. Though accustomed to making things

are typically 5 s.p.

Guild: Weavers’ Guild. Some argue that this
was the first guild ever established. Each apprentice
must serve 4 years. A masterpiece must be produced
to become a journeywoman.
Once an apprentice for 4 years, she may
make a skill check as she crafts her masterpiece. If
passed at TH 36, then she becomes a journeywoman.
If failed, then she may begin crafting another masterpiece
and make another skill check in 1d10 days.
The Aedile may overrule any masterpiece skill check,
because those in the guild who review the apprentice
may dislike her or choose to keep her as an apprentice
for some corrupt reason.
For a journeywoman to become a mistress,
she must be able financially to open her own shop,
and receive the approval of the guild. To receive
approval, she 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 journeywoman
has worked locally with the guild. The Aedile may
overrule this skill check or apply any modifier
deemed appropriate.
