Droyne Profession Skill

[Whitehart]

I’ve been wondering: I made a Droyne priestly drone who got Profession from their caste. What Profession skill does a priestly drone gain that can be used to make money outside of the oytrip, as per the Profession skill in the core rule book, where it says "...the Traveller can make a Profession check to earn money on a planet that supports that trade." Presumably, not many planets support the trade of "Droyne rituals."

Metalworking?

Specifically, making medals and coins...?

But I'd not discount a Droyne priest type preaching to the aliens for whatever unknowable Droyne reason, and people paying for the novelty.

You know, I didn’t even think about how Droyne art and ritual items/spaces could compliment this!

Metalwork/polymers might make ritual tools and coynes. Clothing manufacture for ceremonial garb. Even architecture for ritual chambers and the like. That’s a very good thought! Thanks!

EDIT: On second thought, this would still probably be a Technician’s duty.

This is probably more likely, or selling accounts of Droyne life and customs to interested parties.

A Droyne fortune teller would make absolute bank on a human world. Especially if they're a fraud.

That would actually make a ton of sense! After being forced out of their oytrip, the character became a Rogue (thief) for two terms.

Then they became an intelligence agent but got sent to prison for learning a secret they weren’t meant to know.

C’mon! What did they expect hiring a telepath?! Jeez!

Who could tell? The Droyne themselves probably don't care, but who can tell?

Mysteeeeerioussss....

But they're still Leader main caste. I expect they do the design work and direct the technicians.
