There are certain skills that are relevant for each appointed noble's job, and not all dwarves will gain experience in the given skill; some dwarves will never gain experience in certain skills, this is determined by each dwarf's personal traits, and it is therefore important to select the dwarf with the appropriate set of traits for each position. |

All appointed noble positions aside from the militia captain are appointed by the [[expedition leader]], or the [[mayor]] that replaces them when your fort's population reaches a certain point. [[Militia captain]] positions are instead appointed by the [[militia commander]], and the commander must return from any [[mission]]s before any appointments can be made. If your fort doesn't have the relevant higher-ranking noble [[fun|for some reason]], you can't appoint certain positions until they are replaced. |
