Rogues/thiefs probably go into the security business.

You! Hey, you there! Do you recognize me? That's right, I'm the famous hero that killed the archlich of mount Dread. As you can imagine, I wouldn't have managed to go that far without some serious protection and firepower. And today this protection and firepower can be yours!
Take a good look at that machine: 60mm cold steel plates, 25km, all-terrain, 90% maximal slope, a high-performance 47mm gun against armored foes and a 75mm howitzer for taking care of hordes and fortifications. You can even use it to till your fields during peacetime!
Buy it now and I'll throw in a rearview mirror pendant and a free blessing by a cleric of Pelor.

>Never trust a woman wearing heels to an interview.
Can you explain why not? High heels are a pretty standard part of women's office wear, aren't they? Unless I'm overlooking something, it's the equivalent of "never trust a woman wearing a pencil skirt to an interview".

Gather all the heroes and send them to a penal colony so civilized society doesn't have to deal with re-integrating them.

Just like that episode of Next Generation with the Super Soldiers. Except in this case they go to fantasy Australia instead of a moon.

>>50387173
I actually like the idea of taking modern or post-modern commentaries on the military industrial complex and putting them in fantasy settings. I had a setting idea that was half Golden Age of Exploration with nations financing bands of adventurers to go out to parts unknown, part MGS PMC explosion with all of those adventuring groups being branded companies, and part fantasy Shadowrun, with a handful of powerful "Guilds" that were essentially Shadowrun's megacorps, but selling things like potions and biomancy spells instead of biotech.
It was the kind of setting where you'd have a fantasy iPad.

"Adventuring Guild as PMC" is a neat concept and I wish it was something that happened more. Pathfinder Society organized play's setting *kind of* does it, but the Pathfinder Society isn't a PMC so much as a perpetually needy group of supposed scholars and explorers who send their recruits off to go do errands in exchange for money or support. They do end up getting embroiled in most of Golarion's wars and major events, albeit mostly against demons and shit.

Good butter though.

>>50386629
This just gave me an amazing idea for the next story arc in a campaign I'm running. Mid-way through the story, the adventurer market collapses, putting the PCs out of jobs. They then have to find a way to support themselves in society. Maybe start a war/demon invasion to put themselves back in jobs. The real question remains: what would cause it to collapse?

You make me want to play Mount and Blade again, but it's just so boring. After a while you reach the point where your armies are strong enough to defeat almost everyone in the field and you can win some sieges. You have one major fief (castle or town) and maybe some smaller ones and after that you just... stagnate. There's nowhere left to go.

How is "never get involved in a land war in Asia" a classical blunder? Since none of those wars have resulted in mutual annihilation, there's always one victor. That means100% of the wars in asia have been won by someone.

Probably because any time Europeans have gotten involved in land wars in Asia its been a horrific quagmire that's cost lives and treasure in huge quantities even when something of value was accomplished, which was not often. If his character had been Mongolian it probably wouldn't be a classic blunder to him.

I would hire the one on the very right. She looks at the interviewer and seems nervous. Has her priorities right. The others give the hero woman weird stares. And the hero woman is not really suitable for office work, even less so with that attire.

Eye candy is fine, but she needs to be competent enough to pull her weight too.

Speaking of skilled eye candy, succubi recently signed a deal with the local gods. No more theft of souls and life energy. In exchange they get permission to stay on the mortal planes. Many of them are over 200 years old and look no older than 30. Best secretary and personal assistant by far.
