Having just read the novella that the movie Damnation Alley is based on (only a vague resemblance to the movie, by the way), a post-nuke job might be high-risk driver or courier.

as I said - good.

I would think that is a common fate for people after T2K is a fact.

(Gen Pains next character might have to base his skills on that list ).

Got anymore -please post .

what do you mean "General Pain's next Character" - I thought we all agreed that GP is an immortal demi-god roaming the radioactive wastes in search for enemies,wealth and the occasional post-apoc wench....

here is a new post-apoc career btw:

The Post-Apoc Humanitarian....heheh

Default Law Enforcement Careers

Here is what I came up for Law Enforcement Careers:

Justice of the Peace/Magistrate, who would dispense summary justice and deal with local criminal issues.

Arbitrator, who would resolve non-criminal disputes by hearing arguments and evidence, and rendering decisions.

Sheriff, who is the highest law enforcement officer of a county and commander of militia in that county.

Militia Member, an ordinary citizen who provide defense, emergency law enforcement, or paramilitary service, in times of emergency.

Deputy Sheriff, who assist the Sheriff in his/her duties.

How about the Traveling Hero? The guy (or gal) who roams the country, alone, helping people with sticky problems or enemies in return for a place to stay and some food for a little while? I grant you, almost any highly-skilled character could fill this role, but it's an interesting archetype.

Talking Depending on time passed since the nukes fell

let's say living in a post-nuke environment is like beeing a criminal - u maybe put in jail depending on term-scheduled INT checks - the same should go for a post apoc character,but in this case you roll against INT or any other score the GM allows - if you fail the roll - the GM can deliver some of these wonderfull career choices:
-Slave
-Bandit
-Homeles
-Cannibal
-Scruffy
-Lunatic
-Madmaxian (MadMax/the Road)
-hermit
or perhaps a nice combo of 2 or more of the above.....

just suggestions....
