Loremonger
Information has value, and the Loremonger is that information's keeper. A team's Loremonger studies and records all lore relevant to it's operation, including tracking the economic, technical, and arcane methods by which the Team can be improved. A Loremonger records the deeds and history of the francise, including the names of places visited and people met during missions. These records are then set to the Head Office (Usually through a Documancer) to ensure brand integrity.

If knowledge is power, a Loremonger seeks to become god. They accomplish this by recording everything. The history of the party. The history of the party's enemies. Weaknesses of monsters. Strengths of monsters. Who got drunk last week and hit on the tavern wench that was just not into them. Blackmail fodder. Typos that the Documancer made. That one time someone got reincarnated as a slime.
Loremongers keep the lore of everything.
