Well the way it basically works is you turn 18, you are given a job, you either take that job or choose one of the others. So if you come from a family of Harbingers then you'll probably get that job, but say your character has a heart for medicine, then they can choose Practitioner instead.

Ah, I see. That clears that much up, at least. That's a little less fun than what I imagined it, but still neat.
