Riverman

There opportunities available (trading an otherwise) to those who travel the rivers of the Old World are many and varied. When you need to move along the waterways of the Empire aided by stealth, skill, and speed, knowing a man of the rivers can make all these things happen. Rivermen know the rivers like the best thief knows the alleys of his favourite haunts.

Much like the guide, a riverman negotiates travel along a waterway under a variety of variable; from bargaining a fair price for renting a boat to defending the passengers from attacks, everything is negotiable. Ultimately, rivermen make most of the decisions about how to reach a destination, and have little patience for those who undermine their expertise.
