Past-Life Job Quiz compatibility chart

For each of the 8 past-life jobs, two that are easy to be with and one that may clash. A clash does not mean either side is wrong — they simply value different things.

Bard

Easy together Scribe A Scribe preserves what's written, exactly. They give the stories the Bard spread far and wide a form that won't fade.
Easy together Peddler A Peddler also meets people on the road. You can trade news about the towns ahead and make good traveling companions.
May clash Tailor A Tailor wants to take time and make each thing to fit one person. The speed of a Bard who changes the song on the spot and moves on can look careless to them.

Peddler

Easy together Woodturner A Woodturner makes fine things but isn't one for selling them door to door. When a Peddler carries them, those bowls reach towns far away.
Easy together Ferryman A Ferryman greets travelers at the riverbank. Each time a Peddler passes through, you can swap news of each other's towns.
May clash Herb Gatherer An Herb Gatherer likes to walk the familiar hills in quiet. The energy of a Peddler calling out to bring people in can feel unsettling to them.

Woodturner

Easy together Peddler A Peddler carries what you make to the people who want it. A Woodturner's bowls end up in towns you never imagined.
Easy together Tailor A Tailor also makes things by hand. Hearing how a Tailor makes each piece to suit the wearer reminds a Woodturner, who tends to focus on things, of the faces of the people who'll use them.
May clash Scribe A Scribe likes to keep to the same desk and the same steps. The lightness of a Woodturner who moves, tools and all, can look restless to them.

Navigator

Easy together Ferryman A Ferryman reads the water too. You'll never run out of talk about rivers and seas, and the Ferryman's way with people makes up for the explanations a Navigator leaves out.
Easy together Bard A Bard is great at bringing travel stories to people. They turn the routes a Navigator finds into a story that stays with people.
May clash Tailor A Tailor stays in one shop and makes things for the person in front of them. With a Navigator whose eyes are always on the horizon, your interests point in different directions.

Tailor

Easy together Woodturner A Woodturner knows materials by touch inside out. Talk about materials with them, and new ideas come to you for your own work.
Easy together Herb Gatherer An Herb Gatherer finds useful things in the nearby hills. When a Tailor makes something to suit someone, that sharp eye helps with choosing the materials.
May clash Peddler A Peddler wants to get goods to lots of people quickly. With a Tailor who takes time over one person, you tend to disagree about what needs rushing.

Ferryman

Easy together Navigator A Navigator knows the far-off seas. They bring a Ferryman, who never leaves the riverbank, stories from beyond the horizon.
Easy together Peddler A Peddler shows their face every time they pass through. For a Ferryman, they become a regular who brings news from outside town.
May clash Bard A Bard wants to hurry on to the next town. The Ferryman's caution — waiting to see how the water looks — can feel frustrating to them.

Scribe

Easy together Bard A Bard brings the stories gathered on the road. When a Scribe writes them down, the stories stay instead of fading.
Easy together Herb Gatherer An Herb Gatherer also deals quietly with things. Even in silence it doesn't get awkward; you can have a calm, easy relationship.
May clash Woodturner A Woodturner moves from place to place in search of materials. To a Scribe who wants to work at the same desk, that lightness can look restless.

Herb Gatherer

Easy together Tailor A Tailor makes things to suit people. They turn what an Herb Gatherer finds into something that reaches people.
Easy together Scribe A Scribe writes things down. If they record what an Herb Gatherer knows, it can be passed on to others too.
May clash Peddler A Peddler calls people over and sells with lots of bustle. For an Herb Gatherer who wants to walk the hills in quiet, that energy is unsettling.
