That’s an excellent question. In 1879, characters are generally expected to follow a single profession, as the system is designed around focused development. However, there’s nothing mechanically stopping a character from having skills or a background in another field — especially if it’s part of their personal history, like your aristocrat having served as a cavalry officer.
You’re absolutely right that Free Skills (and optionally Karma) can be used to reflect past training or secondary expertise without formally taking on another profession. That’s a common approach for backgrounds like military service, academia, or espionage.
As for the possibility of multi-profession rules being added in the future — while there’s no official confirmation yet, it’s something we’re aware of and have heard interest in from the community. So it’s definitely on the radar for potential future expansions.
