 ====== Commoner Occupation Traits ======
-After gaining some experience in a specific role, a commoner might gain a trait to represent that life experience and basic training.  Not every commoner gains an occupational Trait, a few might gain a second trait, however, they can never gain more than two traits in this way.  House ruled traits are specific to Commoners, and are designed to help make Commoner NPCs a bit more rounded.  They are not available to characters of other classes.

 Military traits mean commoners can take a very minor military role.  Auxiliaries work in military bases or vessels -  they are trained to support the defence of their site/vessel.  Militia are trained to help defend their town or village and take an active role in chasing away  small predatory animals and scavengers.  The Watch might serve the town or a private employer, and their job is to raise the alarm  (perhaps with an alarm whistle) rather than to deal with an intruder personally.
