Editing Amazing Deliveries (section)

==The Deliverers==

Most people live hard lives and rarely leave their settlements, and for them outside is a danger and a threat. It is no wonder then that to those people Deliverers are figures of fame. Braving the dangers of outside in their rigs to bring vital shipments and news from outside, Deliverers are only outsiders many people ever see.

Deliverers also have a reputation as people who party hard. Many young people dream of becoming one, as a way to see the world and a way to get out of drudgery.

But it is not that simple to become a Deliverer.

Deliverers have their own organization, headed from Delivery Central. To join their ranks, you need to present yourself to the older Deliverers there. If they feel that you wouldn’t make it or that you would become a PR problem, they show you the door. If they think you have potential but need to prove yourself, they may direct you to an established crew with an opening for apprentice.

If you seem skilled and dependable, they may accredit you on the spot. But in a way, apprentices have it easier. They may start from the bottom, but have a crew and rig from the start.

Rigs are expensive enough that few people can afford even a down payment on their own. A newly accredited Deliverer could try to find a crew to join, but apprentices often get the priority.

Another option is to seek out a few other Deliverers that are newly accredited or otherwise without a crew, and pool your resources to get a rig of your own.
