								<p>War provides many opportunities, if you know where to look for them. The Black Marketeer is a combination thief, smuggler,
								gambler, and entrepreneur, always on the lookout for a tasty bit of merchandise that he can sell on at a profit, with
								hidden caches scattered here, there, and everywhere. He is frequently only a few steps ahead of the law, who take a very
								dim view of his line of business.</p>

								plus up to two other professional skills</p>.
								<p><b><i>BONUS</i></b>Nobody's Fool: the Black Marketeer is virtually immune to Fast Talk or 
								Persuade. Treat every attempt to do so as a Difficult skill check.</p>
