What did your Player Characters do before they began their lives as Adventurers?
Most adventurers typically start their careers in their late teens or early twenties...and while that sounds about right in the modern world, a person in a medieval period would conceivably be married, have children, own property, and work in a profession by the time he was 16. Thus, a first level fighter could be leaving a family behind in order to enter his first dungeon. He might have to worry about who's minding his blacksmith shop while he's off slaughtering kobolds.
Fantasy Occupations is a d20 resource designed to help players and Game Masters flesh out the backgrounds of first level fantasy characters, taking a page from d20 Modern and using Occupations to reflect a character's background and former livelihood. Occupations offer permanent class skills, starting money and bonus feats to first-level characters, as well as providing more detailed backgrounds for roleplaying.
