Introduction
i ntroduCtion
Welcome to the Wa r hammer Fantasy Roleplay Career
Compendium . his book presents a huge collection of
careers from a wide range of WFRP products, organising
and centralising information that was previously spread
out among a dozen or more books into one convenient
resource. We also introduce several new careers to help lesh
out your campaigns and add more realism and depth to the
Old World. Inside the pages of the Career Compendium you
will ind more than 220 careers, each career featuring new
information and ideas for both players and GMs. he book
also provides literally hundreds of adventure seeds and plot
hooks to create engaging, memorable encounters and stories
involving these careers.
Careers also help tell a story. As a character advances over the
course of a WFRP campaign, the careers he adopts become a
sort of journal of his life. he story behind the Rat Catcher
who seizes an opportunity to strike it rich by becoming a
hief could be wholly diferent from the Rat Catcher who
takes up arms and chooses to become a Shieldbreaker. Or the
Apprentice Wizard who eschews the other wizardly careers
to instead focus on acadaemia and becomes a Scholar. he
countless other career combinations also have their own
unique stories to tell.
he career system provides a more luid, natural progression
than many other advancement systems. Characters tend to
advance more gradually over time, improving here by a bit,
getting slightly better at that – as opposed to the jarring,
sudden surges in ability by having everything change at
once. his gradual process makes progression easier to
integrate into the story, and makes it easier for a GM to ind
opportunities within a campaign to justify advancement.
Based on the career system’s importance to the WFRP
experience, and seeing how much depth, lavour, and
realism it adds to the setting, it is easy to see how valuable a
sourcebook like the Career Compendium will be to your game.
The Career System
Why a Career Compendium ? Perhaps more than any other
game element, the system of careers is a signature part of
WFRP . he careers provide lavour and identity to player
characters as well as NPCs. here’s a sense of realism the
career system generates for the setting, illing the Old
World with people from all walks of life, from the lowly
Rat Catchers and Bone Pickers to Noble Lords and Warrior
Priests.
It also provides a great tool to GMs to help create non-player
characters for their campaigns. You don’t have to decide how
to shoehorn the leader of a village into a broad, generic class
like “Fighter.” Instead, you can ind relevant careers that help
create a fully leshed out character concept and can populate
your world with people that make sense.
Using This Book
he focus of this book is an alphabetical listing of careers.
Each career has its own full-page listing, making it easier to
skim through the book and ind the career you’re looking for,
while also allowing us to devote more attention to the many
diferent types of careers available in Wa r hammer Fantasy
Roleplay . here are no separate chapters or sections, until you
reach the Appendices.
If you are a player, you can use this book to quickly explore
the advancement options available to your character. Rather
than shuling back and forth through several books, you
can easily compare and evaluate your options right here.
As a GM, the Career Compendium will quickly become
one of your most valuable tools. he book is illed with
hundreds of ideas and a wealth of new information about
the Old World and its people. And if your players go of in
a direction you weren’t anticipating during a session (as they
are wont to do), you can quickly generate NPCs by inding
appropriate careers.
Updates & Errata
Where possible, the careers found in the Career Compendium
have been updated to relect the most current errata and
corrections. Changes to the advance schemes, talents, skills,
and trappings have been lagged in special text to make
identifying these updates easy.
Further, the career entries and exits have been updated and
adjusted, allowing more luid mobility between several careers.
Previously, n e w careers found in other WFRP sourcebooks
generally only provided career mobility between other careers
from the same sourcebook or the WFRP Core Rulebook . he
Career Compendium allows some of these careers to connect
where there is a natural, logical relationship.
