What about unemployed?

 

Part of the idea behind the Talent groups is this is what someone might have experience in, that doesn't necessarily dictate that they are actively employed. Drifter could could possibly serve as a guideline for someone chronically unemployed or homeless if that helps.

In a rationally designed Champions world (at least as rational as you can get in a world where the laws of physics and thermodynamics are at best suggestions), superhero would be a profession in itself. Few if any day jobs would tolerate employees who disappear for extended periods of time to do hero stuff. If superheroes are going to act as unofficial government agents, the government might as well pay for their upkeep.

 

Of course, the question of what the government wants in exchange has a lot of story possibilities.

 

So how does Superman earn a living from being Superman?

Clark Kent may need a living, but Superman does not.

 

The Fortress of Solitude is all the shelter he needs.

 

His costume does not wear out.

 

He is solar powered and does not actually need to eat.

 

What would Superman need a "living" for?
