COURTESAN
Halflings, High Elves, Humans
Skilled in Charm and Negotiation, you can provide companionship of all kinds to the Nobles.
In the Old World, they are a socially recognised group, although not quite socially accepted, and some mix
freely with the ruling classes whenever they gather.
Many have freedoms that are comparatively rare for women, for they are not only financially secure, but
financially independent. Some are shrewd business women, organising different clients every night of the week,
making more money than many well-established Merchants; others are kept, passing their years in extravagant
homes, with trappings fit for a queen. Most have an exemplary education, and often hold simultaneous backgrounds
as comedian or dancer. However, because of the Courtesan's financial successes and freedoms, some citizens are
afraid they may be mistaken for their nation's honourable nobility. Thus, some concerned cities have passed
sumptuary laws requiring them to wear prescribed clothing, just like a common harlot of the street.
