| - | * Differentiated ichor is extruded from the pores and collected in clay balls, which can be drunk from, thrown, or given to others to do the same.

| + | ====Class Feature: Respected==== | ||
| + | * Commissioners are particularly respected within Rastaban. As Forest Touched are treated as social pariahs, Commissioners are treated as social betters. | ||
| + | * You can generally assume you are able to obtain entry to most clubs, events or social engagements. At least in the respectable parts of society. | ||
| + | * If you commit crimes the judgement is more likely to swing in your favour. Standard practise in cases where a commissioner is found guilty is to pass the judgement onto the Commission for them to dole out an appropriate punishment - unless the faction is irate enough to risk the Commission's wrath by taking things into their own hands. | ||
| + | * These facts combined mean that commissioners tend to get off quite lightly for most infractions unless they commit crimes against the Commission or against the Commission's interests. | ||
