Note: Edited to correct mistake made due to misunderstanding a rule. Changes account for mustering out of career See end of Term 7 for rolls. That means the roll previously made in this post was unnecessary. Roll removed to account for changes. Fluff text added to reflect the change. All rolls in following threads remain the same, but will be applied to the new career. Edits to follow.
“42 isn't old damn it! I can still keep up with all of these kids.” At least, that is what he keeps saying to himself. That, and he still thinks the life of a civil servant is the highest calling. It is for this reason that he submits his application to the scouting corp. He has knowledge of how to pilot spacecraft, after all, and he could see himself living out the rest of his days as a courier/mailman delivering private correspondence, or perhaps as the pilot on an exploration vessel, using his knowledge to be able to handle rough space and skies.
He kept waiting for the notification from the scouts. Every time he contacted them, they said he wasn't rejected, according to their files, but that his application was still pending.
All the while, as this went on, he found the good name he had made for himself in the service had been passed up to the right ears on the civilian side. "If only it had made it to higher up in the military instead. I could have retired at a much higher rank," he mused as he found himself invited and attending parties and events. Every succeeding event happened in higher and higher society circles. He don't know how it happened, but he found that he was accepted into Noble society....as one of them!!!

As he found himself mixing with high society, he also found that he had to learn some things along they way, just to survive. He feared more for his throat being cut here in noble society than he ever did as a marine. (Skill upon entering Advocate: 0)
Time to see what skills he might have picked up along the way.

And, time to see how well he survived drifting around as a dilettante

He found that being a noble meant shading the truth to reflect what others expected to see. After all, it's all the truth, from a certain point of view. (Gained Deception: 1)
Along the way, life happened. Time to see what events transpired

Event 10: You manipulate and charm your way through high society. Gain one level of Carouse, Diplomat, Persuade or Steward, as well as a Rival and an Ally.
Surprisingly enough, all the nobles have hobbies. Many of them would be considered rather mundane to most people, but they get cherished higher up. One of the things that KC found his new 'peers' appreciated was his ability to cook. Good thing he loved to cook. (Gain a level of Steward)
He didn't know how well he could advance and improve living a life like this full time, however

His fortunes did continue to improve. It seems that some of the investments he made along the way paid off. But, unknown to him, the military doctors were not fully honest with him. The same ailment as before was still in his body, awaiting to resurface at the most inconvenient times....

Now 46 years old, KC takes stock of his life up to this point. He decides that he really can't complain too much about it. He also decides that even if he chose to complain, it wouldn't do a bit of good.
