JOBS
A job is the main thing your OC will do to get by within the world of Roots, and may have mechanics and perks attached!
OCs may also have hobbies, talents and interests beyond their official chosen job. If you're in doubt about what's allowed, please ask a mod.
Some jobs come with perks which allow them to participate in special mechanics.

Job Vouchers
Job Vouchers are items that let you try out other jobs! Once Acquired, store them in your inventory, Job Vouchers can be earned from a variety of ways in the Discord Server, but how do they work? You may use a Job Voucher any time you like, gaining an extra roll for the day using what ever Job Mechanic you desire, provided its available in the village you are in! When you fill in the start of the form, make sure you add the Job you are trying out and that you are using the Voucher to do this. You will keep all that you earn from this job, but also any consequences, such as a loss of hearts or use of Stamina from crafting, so plan accordingly! Once the roll is done, you spend the voucher, so remove it from you inventory (or lower the number by 1 if you have many).
Please note, you can spend your job voucher to roll your normal job twice, but that would be a waste of the opportunity. Job Voucher may be traded between characters or sold should you not wish to use it!
Limitations: Job vouchers can only be used for crafting tasks that require 5 or less stamina.
Job vouchers cannot be used for appraisal tasks.
