I'm tired of working in an office and wanted a little more adventure in my life - is anyone these days hiring sellswords?

You could try walking into a local police station / government office with a sword strapped to your back, to see if anyone would hire you. And sellswords who take 'no' for an answer become peasants, so don't be afraid to aggressively push your business.

Huh, what a neat little feature.

Anyways, you should go down south where they have wild hog problems. Large, violent, deadly, creatures who the government will pay you to put down,with very few restrictions. If you were looking to fight other people, try a county that still allows duels, as being hired as a proxy/stand in is a thing that you could get paid for.

If you want to stay in a "civilized" country try, putting an ad on Craigslist or in your local newspaper. I'm not sure if the magazine "Soldier of Fortune" is still around, but put an ad in there if it is, or whatever zine has taken it's spot.

Well, I guess someone might hire you. Probably need to become more well known and have plenty of skill.

You have the option of being a mercenary but you will want to upgrade to using firearms, swords are not as useful in combat anymore.
