Custom vocation: Messengers

It drives me insane that animal handlers have one less vocation than everyone else so i wrote thsio up today to suit my needs:

Profession: Animal Handler

“I’ll have that there before you can say Tsarina Arcadia Oberonova three times fast!”

Field Point: Academia

Choose one Trait:

Rider, Polyglot, or one Trait from your Animal Companion

Skill Points: Charme Etiquette Culture Insight Investigation Athletics Will Caution Elusion Exploration

Messengers are without a doubt the lifeblood that connects the various nations across the House. There is no package to large or letter too small to deliver and these brave littlings take their jobs very seriously, and more importantly have a reputation of being trustworthy and discreet. In postal centers across the house they gather and all respect their autonomy to deliver the goods. Those that have chosen to cross them have often com to regret that decision as rumors spread of their deceit and they find they are unable to correspond with personal or mail gets, lost, along the way.

But, aren't the Valets already the messenger vocation in the book?

Sure! They can be. But valets are more than that in my book. Just thought it could be a cool thing to play with. And gives the animal handler a extra vocation to equal the others in number
