This career was pulled out of my ass for Episode 62 as Sotek needed it for his special guest appearance. But, it's also a career I needed, so it was good to get it in place. But, be warned, this has not been proofread so will likely need a few corrections. If you spot any mistakes or suspect errors, please tell me in Discord.

And, yes, for those of you tracking these things. I drew another woman. I'm redressing the historic imbalance of genders in WFRP career art one career at a time. Hahaha.

More seriously, Ahlanna made a better choice for an image than, say, Immanuel-Ferrand or Markus Fischer because neither of them dresses like an archetypical grey. Ahlanna, by comparison, absolutely does. And it's good to fall on stereotypes for the careers. So, I went with her. Besides, she's likely to be an important NPC later (she has popped up one Tales episode so far), so nice to have an image of her in place.

As with all the careers I've been posting, this one needs our houseruled Talents. And, like the Jade Wizard career, there are no magic rules accompanying this. That said, I have written almost all the spells I need for the Grey Order (currently numbering about 40ish?), about a third of which were needed by Sotek. For those looking for rules, folks over on Discord have been building their own houserules for magic, so maybe you'll find something there as I bounce over to the Path of Abandon, which will likely be Career 11.

Oh, and also as always, to understand this career, you also need our Career Houserules.

Ah, the famous Grauman, from the introductory letter! Ps. If the character blurbs on the top right are due to writing on the fly, keep doing it. Very enjoyable.

It is attached though, I just downloaded it. Maybe reload and check again?

LAWhammer

It's definitely up at this end.

saurus lost in bretonnia

strange, i reloaded twice nothing but third time it appeared . then ignore my patreon trouble , and double thanks for this incredible episode and career ^^

LAWhammer

It's an 'I don't have this finished' thing. :D

LAWhammer

Glad you enjoyed them. They are a sample of the careers we'll post, so more will come.

Magnus Kragset

Thank you for this one, hopefully many more to come soon :)

Magnus Kragset

I second Quinn. There is no Second Sight here, Andy. Which talent would you swap for Second Sight ? Because it sort of needs to be there, surely?

LAWhammer

There is no need for it to see the other winds, and thematically, the Grey wind is tricksy to their senses. Have you read how Second Sight works in our rules?

LAWhammer

As I commented to Quinn about 2 seconds ago, there is no need for the talent in our rules to see the other winds, and thematically, the Grey wind is tricksy to their senses. Have you read how Second Sight works in our rules?

LAWhammer

And pardon for not answering earlier - I missed this comment when it came in. Magnus Kragset's comment brought this to my attention.

LAWhammer

The Talent almost cover everything you need. To quote: 'You can detect +Second Sight additional Winds of Magic without a test. For the rest you have the Sight (see Magic).' The Sight rules are summed with: if you have the Channelling skill, you can sense the wind without a test.

LAWhammer

I need to get the core of our magic rules up, eh? They are almost identical to core, but not quite.

LAWhammer

After re-reading it, I believe clarifying it in the Talent will resolve any issues for now. I'll update that for the next Talent upload.

LAWhammer

The next update will include this so it's all clear: You can more easily perceive the shifting Winds of Magic that flow from the polar Chaos Gates. You can detect +Second Sight additional Winds of Magic without a test. Without this Talent, you can only automatically sense Winds when you have at least 10 Advances in the associated Channelling skill, as explained in the Sight (see MAGIC).

LAWhammer

Right, now to write a Lorebeards blog! :D

Magnus Kragset

Yes, or I thought I had read the latest version (I use your talents after all). But we just restarted warhammer now after a 8 month break, so we are a tad rusty, including me after more than half a year with Call and Runequest. I shall reread it. Apologies, I just tried to be helpful but missed a step.
