Farmer

You grew up a commoner, farming your land, your families land, or the land of a noble/lord. Your family is in no way special, as far as you know but you grew up healthy and strong, learning about the land and the weather. You learned to appreciate and value the simple things in life. You learned to value what was yours but that you didn't need more than you could use. You also grew to understand what could be accomplished by will alone as well as what can be accomplished by teamwork or a community working together.

Suggested Characteristics

Suggested Characteristics

Farmers are defined by their self-sufficiency as well as the tight communities that they tend to form. The lifestyle tends to promote a "pull yourself up by your bootstraps" mentality and this combined with the tendency to have large families often creates tight familial bonds as well as a distrust of outsiders. 

d8	Personality Trait
1	I'm always checking the conditions when I go to a new place to see how well it would take a farm like mine.
2	I'm very self-conscious about looking like a yokel, making me seem shy or withdrawn
3	I tend to gawp at things that are new to me.
4	I'll never miss an opportunity to prove that I can and will work harder than anyone else.
5	I'd just as soon not have to deal with people. Animals are easier to trust.
6	Life on the road is great, but I tend to get homesick easily
7	I may have grown up on a farm, but that time is behind me, and I'd just as soon leave it behind.
8	When given a job I will be sure to see it through to the end

d6	Ideal
1	Freedom. You handle your life, I'll handle mine, and as long as you don't stop me from doing what I want we'll get along fine. (Chaotic)
2	Altruism. If you can, you help a person out, even if that means you will have a harder time of things in the future. (Good)
3	Glory. I've had enough of digging in the mud, I'm going out to make my name and my fortune. (Any)
4	Resentment. I've spent my life being harassed by people who think they're better than me. I want to see them under my boot for a change. (Evil)
5	Consistency. The seed sprouts, goes to flower, and fruits. Try to harvest the sprout and you'll starve. Everything has its time and place, we just have to know when that is. (Lawful)
6	Exploration. I want to go out and see the world, for all that it has to offer — good and bad. (Any)

2	The land I grew up on is much a part of me as any bloodline. I'll die to see it safe.

4	I need to find someone who can help cure the blight that's killing my farm.
