We know that dragonslaying is a specialized occupation of megabeast slaying practices that can be remotely associated with bounty hunting. Adding to the more lucrative rewards in gold, silver and all that makes a being mad, dragonslaying brings often immeasurable relief to a dragon infested realm, can cast it into chaos or draw extraplanar attention, that can open up doors to unexpected realities. Another form of attention is the reputation a dragonslayer may reach, gaining vanity titles such as Dragonslayer or Dragonbane.

To succeed in a professional dragonslayer career you need to have specialized or focused on a single deception, expertises and have at least a couple of sideskills complementing the foci or used as a last resort. Deviating drastically from the foci can cause immature death of a legend - was it you, your companion or your reputation. Although more proper would be to introduce your person before your foci, your foci serve as a logical link to who you are. Not all races, attributes and personalities will be able to pull it off what it’s to be full-time dragon slayers with any foci. Some deceptions benefit critically from example prana, intelligence or psi abilities of certain races. Because most surviving dragons are terribly intelligent and experienced, they must be slain by a single maxed out deception.

A quintessential deception harnessed by many clever warlords is “order in chaos”, in which you make your readiness appear unpreparedness. War itself is based on deception and truth is the first casualty in war. The professional dragonslayer wages a personal war against dragons.

An expertise is more than just skill in some area - it is possibly not yet a rule-ascending mastery, but pervasive knowledge of the laws and conditions of a domain and the ability to abuse this knowledge or conditioning at every turn. An expertise could be better described as an activity of a peace with the self.

Sideskills or secondary skills are the touch with the domains and the world that the dragonslayer has not yet learned to know properly, but which may help dealing with a BLACK SWAN when every solid skill fails and the inner peace is broken facing a dragon.

If nothing else, it is recommendable that you are/were a dragon yourself at some point of your life journey, in which case your expertise could be kinslaying as you would know the dragon mind well and how to abuse this in deception. Also, do not do peasant.

The italics that were supposed to give minimal guidance to what was looked after failed: Choose one deception, some expertise and some sideskills or die. For now, your occupation is slaying dragons. But who and what else are you?
