All seven callings are now named; no [CANON-TBD] remains in the specs.
Reaver (Barbarian). To reave is to raid — occupational, like Sellsword and
Trapper, naming what he does for money rather than what he is inside. That is
the rule the five mock names already obeyed and that §8's own list broke: a
calling is what a village calls you, not what a rulebook calls you. Bearsark
and Wildman were rejected for naming a condition; Breaker for being generic.
Bloodsworn (Warlock) was not a new coinage — the cosmology minted it a day
after the races spec was written ("what the Margreave calls bloodsworn",
rule.blood-price), and the cosmology spec had already applied it. It is the
exact FTH-axis mirror of Bonesetter: one channels the Warden, one pacts a king
of the Seven. Accepted cost, recorded in the spec: alone among the callings it
names a condition rather than a trade — the villain who pacts Ghaul is
bloodsworn too. A second, occupational word (Cursewright, Hexman) was
considered and rejected as a distinction the player will never feel.
Also retires the stale "reconcile class names" note on M4 and records the two
contract migrations that milestone owes: the canon log's `race` field, and the
deserter origin's dead allowed_classes.

Both roadmaps still described the copper currency change as pending. It is
merged. The marker moves to M4, M8's line now says what it still owes (the
price table — nothing is priced yet), and a "Landed out of band" section
records the two items that shipped outside a milestone: the currency value
type, and the once-per-reply move cap its review turned up.

Implements the docs restructure half of the content-track design (the
currency item is code and stays unbuilt). Content stops being unbounded:
the work is now a countable checklist with an end.
content/roadmap.md — new. Three sections, only one of which is ever the
work:
Spine Greywater Docks + one dungeon, patron Ghaul the Yoke; the
cosmology touching ground. Plus what is already canon.
BOM ~57 discrete pieces for a complete, playable game, per
milestone. Numbers, not vibes.
Backlog Everything the slice does not need. Not a debt — where ideas
go to be safe.
Its rule: never author anything that is not in the Bill of Materials.
The BOM carries a Fixed/Variable column — the seven-campaign saga spec's
only ask of this table. ~37 fixed / ~20 variable: a second town costs the
20, not the 57. That is also the exact split v2 generation would need.
content/lore/canon-roadmap.md becomes a pointer (older specs and plans
reference the old path). An items-and-prices table does not belong under
lore/.
docs/roadmap.md — M4..M9 each gain a "Content it consumes →" line into
the BOM.
world-building skill — SKILL.md and evals.json now point at
content/roadmap.md, and the skill is told to respect the BOM rule: ideas
that arrive during authoring go to the Backlog, not into the world.
Build + --check green; generated content/world and content/server are
byte-identical. No Python touched.
