Advocates are professional yeomen who make a study of the history of the Empire and the structure of the Imperial offices, with an eye towards supporting noble senators. They may occasionally be called on to brief generals or other nobles on behalf of the senators, but for the most part they focus on making sure that Dawn gains political capital - and expends it as wisely as possible.

Playing an Advocate

Playing an Advocate is a little like playing a personal assistant or secretary. Rather than restricting yourself to being an assistant to only one noble, however, there is a lot more fun to be had making yourself indispensible to all the Dawnish senators. There is a lot of opportunity for roleplaying interactions both within Dawn and with your opposite numbers in other nations.

This is a character choice that will allow you to explore some of the themes of being a civil servant without actually being an NPC. A lot will rely on roleplaying, but you should never be afraid to approach a civil servant and ask for clarification on a point of law or procedure - liaising with the civil service can be a source of fun in itself.
