system in a certain civilization simulation game.

Thief:      Adventurer, DEX
Ranger:     Adventurer, CON
Mage:       Adventurer, INT

Cavalier:   Fighter, Ranger, STR CON

Scribe: (comprehend/write/copy spells/prayers/music) SPI

Vague Plan for Guilds Prerequisite Codes:

M14?A4: Mage, Levels 1 to 4 (You must be a level 4 Adventurer to train)
m14?C8B8: Missionary, Levels 1 to 4 (You must be
          a level 8 Cleric AND a level 8 Bard to train)
