Re: [Fantasy] Any Background Lenses out there I can use?
As it happens, when I wrote GURPS Fantasy, I did short job descriptions for 11 occupations; see pp. 138-139. These don't quite amount to lenses, but they have required advantages and skills; you could fairly easily turn each of them into a lens. If you have Fantasy, take a look.

Re: [Fantasy] Any Background Lenses out there I can use?
Thanks. I like the Dabbler Perk, though, to squeeze in a couple of Tertiary Skills (always two, for the sake of simplicity). And to conform to GURPS' pentophilic norm.
Your Warhammer-inspired writeup is good. I like it. |

Re: [Fantasy] Any Background Lenses out there I can use?
Thank you.
It's not Warhammer-inspired, though - it's straight out of GURPS Historical Folks. I've never played Warhammer, nor even really looked at any books for it. |

Re: [Fantasy] Any Background Lenses out there I can use?
Okay. It's just because Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay, at least in the first edition(s), is infamous for starting the player characters in very mundane careers, with very limited combat skills, including one for Rat Catcher, although it's my understanding that they can (and usually will) easily switch to more combat-focused careers very soon in the campaign.
