Young Nobleman
You are a young nobleman who does not inherit your fortune or authority until you are older; perhaps 25 or 30. You parents have pulled some strings to get you into the diplomatic core so that you might gain some real life experience. This lands you in Arcovia far from family and their protection. You'll need all your wits to survive and prove to your parents that you are ready and able to handle responsibility back home.
Middle Class Up and Coming
You are born into a middle-class family; a family of doctors, scholars, merchants, or military men. You demonstrate an unusual level of skill or intellect and someone, who knows someone, who knows someone, connects you with the diplomatic corp in your capital. You are offered an opportunity to rise farther above your station than even your parents hoped for you -- to study in Arcovia. You jump at the chance and are soon embroiled in the local spycraft. Will you hold to your first goal or choose a different life path.
Refuse a Marriage Proposal
Your parents have set up an excellent arrangement for you, but you are not interested in having your spouse choosen for you, and you refuse. Your rather annoyed father bundles you off to Arcovia with a chaperone hoping that you'll find someone to your liking among the young noble men and diplomats stationed there.
An excellent career
You've had an excellent career in the military and are getting ready to retire your service. Instead, you are offered a cushy position within the general's entorage in Arcovia. You sign on as protection and to keep your eyes and ears open for anything the general might need to know. You always wanted to meet people from other parts of the continent.
