Secretarian

An Occultant and a Secretarian share a single trait: A focus on people. But while an Occultant weighs the value of life verses the gains earned via death, a Secretarian is taught to see the value that can be wrung out of every person, day by day, as they produce more wealth. Every person outside the company is a potential customer, and a Secretarian is trained to establish positive first relationships and cultivate new customer bases wherever they are assigned.   Formal Job Responsibilities Include:
  • Having the Fortitude to listen to both customers and coworkers without going insane and while providing tip top customer service.
  • Spinning the actions and activities of your Team that draw the public attention in the best possible light to all those observing.
  • Undermining the branding efforts of competition without allowing such activities to be linked back to Acquisitions Incorporated.
  • Cultivating contacts and potential freelance contractors in mission-relevant areas over a wide range of skills and expertise.
  • Cooperation with other members of designated team in all mission-critical activities.
  • Securing additional streams of revenue and acquisition of resources during missions (See 'Sidequest" clause in standard employment contract)
Upon initial selection for this position, an applicant will receive specialized training and equipment in the form of the following:
  • Proficiency in either Bluff or Disguise, or a +1 specialization bonus in either skill should the character already have skill ranks in both of them.
  • An Acquisitions Incorporated standard-issue Sending Stone, a set of playing cards and dice of various shapes and sizes, a set of brochures, a metal bell, and a set of fine clothes for your preferred gender.
And upon attaining a promotion in their selected career path, an Secretarian will gain the following abilities and privileges associated by rank:
Rank Ability Privilege
1 "Sending Stone" Proficiencies and Starting Equipment
2 "Rumor Mill" Access to a Portfolio Keeper
3 "Improved Rumor Mill" Access to Cards of Sending

The sort of person who can sell Ice in Icewind Dale, a Secretarian is the definition of the term "people person", and all the horrifying marketing wizardry it can entail. A Secretarian is almost never caught without a jingle, slogan, or catchphrase designed to build the brand ready to be unleashed.
"My daughter Certainty created the Secretarian role. Proved it out as a concept. I told her we didn't need them. I was wrong."
