I'm curious about the structure of Roadwardens as a organization. Who does an individual Roadwarden report to? Who do they work for, a town/city, province, The Empire? How much would a Roadwarden make per month? Etc

Up until now, I've assumed that it is structured much like the modern day State Troopers in the United States, but am curious if there has ever been any official info written about them. The career card is rather vague in this regard and my interweb searches have turned up nil.

Check out the Shades of Empire source book for WHFRP 2nd ed (available as a download). It has great source material for road wardens.

Essentially Road Wardens when banded / stationed together report to a "Captain", although technically they are autonymous and answer only to the emporer. In practice, however, they often find themselves under the guidance / direction of their "Captain" or a local Noble / Official. Their warrants provide them with the authority to patrol a certain road / district and act in accordance with the law.

The fluff in SoE is fantastic as it breeds life into all sorts of facets of the empire. It would be well worth purchsing - even though wrtten for 2nd ed (It is fluff more than rules).

It covers; Altdorf Dockers, Brothers of Handrich (trade), The Glorious Revolution of the People (Agitators), Hedgefolk (pseudo witchcraft), The Imperial Navy, The Knights of Magritta, The Quinsberry Lodge (halflings campaigning for equality) and Roadwardens with about 15 to 25 pages on each group (history, structure, GM section etc).

Hope this helps.

Done and done! Thanks so much!

I hadn't even thought of Roadwardens having an official organisation. I had just thought they would have been employed on a local basis, ie by a local town, village, lord or whatever.
