Cog: You are a Cog, holding a position within the Barony under the Baron/Baroness.

Engineer: In the years after Doomsday, the machines that drove society were abandoned as humanity was incapable of keeping them running with out power and gasoline a national infrastructure provided. As the world started to rebuild, many tried to salvage those old machines and as these skills were passed down, you have become one of the primary forces of resurrecting the old world tech.

Nomad: You or your family before you defected from the lifestyle initially given, by barons, in the Badlands. Some are former cogs or even clippers and they usually travel in groups with other nomads alike. They fall on a spectrum, ranging from menaces to society or freedom fighters who rebel against dictators. They normally look out for no one but themselves.

Regent: You want to be the best of the best....a Regent is the highest rank that a Clipper can achieve, and must be chosen by their Baron in order to attain this title. They function as the Baron's right hand man, leads his Clipper Force, and will carry out any task that is asked of them. While some, can be almost blindly loyal to their Baron, many take the opportunity of their high rank to steal profits, or even plot to kill them to take the Barony.
