Advanced Careers A-M  Note: The contents of this this chapter may, at some some point in the future, future, have to be reduced from th that at which  you see present. If that that becomes the case, it will sstill till contain bas basic ic information that that could be ferreted out  out   from the same sources sources I used to compile the the Project, but not as much much gap-filler, uno unofficial fficial material as is here at present. The reason for the potentiality potentiality of removing this information is that a sourcebook that  might, just possibly, get published sometime is in development at this time, that may yet (we still don't  know quite yet) contain some as yet unofficial informatio information n broadly similar to some of that that presented  here. Due to publishing constraints, constraints, and to keep open the possibility of publishing that information, information, I  reserve the right to remove it from view here in due course.

Arne Dam]  Desc:: In any larger Orc camp you will find the Cheetin' Gits, the tribe huzzlers. Primarily being smarter   Desc than average Goblins, Hobgoblins and small Orcs, they gamble and perform bunko-artist-like tricks that impress the other boys and, hopefully, throw of a little cash. The most famous trick is the three skulls and the finger-bone ("O', yoo fink da boon is under dis skull. Lez 'ave a look..."). As well as this they are skilled (if such is the right word) in various gambling games, typically dice. Unfortunately, it's hard to make tricks and win cash in gambling without making someone look foolish. When the ones with cash are the big guys, being a Cheetin' Git can be a rather dangerous job...  Adv scheme: scheme: WS+10, BS+10, T+1, W+2, I+10, Dex+20, Int+10, Cl+10, WP+10, Fel+20.

These guys are as crazy as their Humie Slayur brethren, only more so, and many have a  proficiency in combat that that possibly even tthe he hardiest Dwarf wou would ld blanch at.

A few specialise in ridding the deeper tunnels of tribal holds of chaotic spawn, of those who venture into the more notorious tunnels few return.  Adv scheme: scheme: WS+20, BS+20, S+1, T+1, W+5, I+30, A+2, Dex+20, Ld+20, Int+10, Cl+10, WP+20, Fel+10.
