  Makes perfect sense, especially when you have a character with an important profession that you would want people viewing the page to see the detail of. There are ways to display it but this seems more in line with things like membership of an organisation or rank.

  Makes sense, but I would argue that it would be better as a mini text box (like the hair color, eye color, etc. are) than as a drop-down selection, because you might want to mention their profession without making a whole article for said profession. Like if your character is just a cook or a schoolteacher, and neither of those things are special in your world so they don't need their own articles.

  This would be incredibly beneficial for linking campaign npc's to their jobs. It would also help my party in understanding the job type of the npc as many jobs in my campaign are fictional.

  As others have pointed out, there are certainly ways to accomplish this, but I agree with DesNordlund that this is a simpler way to do it in line with the way the devs have already done other options.

  You can already do this from the Profession article template under "Relations" and "Famous in the Field". You can select or type in a character's name and it will update the character to have that profession in their side bar. You can also do a custom addition to the sidebar if you don't want to do a profession templated article.

  Honestly, adding an entry to "Current state" with something along the lines of "current profession(s)" makes a lot of sense to me, which can then be elaborated upon in the "Employment" entry we already have.

  I know you can technically solve this another way, but having a dedicated profession(s) field would be extremely helpful. After all, we already have thing like "vehicle currently on board" which are far less specialized. IAnyway, adding to the sidebar always seems to add a weird space, which I don''t like and haven't figured out how to remove.)

  I think the characters profession is meant to go into the career promt field - but you can always use the key::value system to add things into the sidebar:

  
  

  Profession

  
  

  Author

  
  

  , for example
