Editing Reign/Random Characters (section)

== Step 3 ==
'''Previous careers.'''  On the dice you just rolled, you will have at least a one subset of matched dice,  likely two or three or more.  The number showing on a matched set (called the "height" in ORE) shows what profession you’ve practiced in your life.  The number of dice in the subset (called the "width" in ORE) shows how or how far you ended up going in that job.  (Singleton dice are counted in the next step.)

The following lists the skills and attribute bonuses you receive at each level of each profession.  Note that these are cumulative -- rolling four dice showing "4" gets you the advantages of being a Merchant, Tradesman AND a Banker.
