The Luck of the Fisherman Book

Apparently an innocent book of commoner fables, with pieces of good dark humor, The Luck of The Fisherman tells many tales of a fast thinking fisherman as he gets involved in many absurd situations when trying to go exercise his naming profession. The cover of the book shows a cat standing as a human and dressing in human clothes with fishhook and line ready on it's shoulder. Through the book this figure changes slightly in different illustrations that separates the tales, losing the cat's face as if it was a mask, only to lose his new face as if it was too a mask to reveal another cat's face, and so on.

Hidden behind these seemingly innocent fables is the true purpose of The Luck of the Fisherman. Being actually a secret book dedicated to Ranald, it was originally written with zealous care by a group of Ranald's Priests from the Giver of Coins Sect. It's intention is to teach the common folk about the injustice of the Empire's wealth hierarchy, and then how to manage to dismantle it. Behind every tale of The Fisherman is not only a political morale, but also highly elaborate techniques to deal with different situations in the life of an Agitator. They pass to the reader through a subjective and emotional understanding about how The Fisherman himself deal with the situations represented in the book's tales.

By passing varying difficulty Intelligence Tests, the reader can gain access to Out of Career Advances such as the Skill Charm. There are many copy of the original book, and some has been changed by later Priests to specific intentions. So what can be learned from each version of The Luck of the Fisherman, and how clear are the messages, varies greatly. Presumably there are darker copies, maybe oriented to more extreme forms of worshipping Ranald, or even subtly corrupted by some Chaos Cult or worshipper of darker Gods to lead people to viler acts… and probably insanity.
