So, in THIS corner, you have a six figure salary, stock options, job security, PHYSICAL security, access to cutting-edge spell formulae, lodge and binding materials, and opportunity for career advancement, plus all the corporate honey you could ask for.
In THAT corner, you have drekky food half-warmed up, a matress that could highlight a medical journal, an itch from a bullet wound that never has healed right, three warrants for your arrest, and your friend on the team offered to set you up with that Ork in the lobby ... pick up the tab and everything! So what makes it all worth while? Why does your mage keep at it when going corporate is so rewarding. |
