I'd love to hear if you have any luck with this.  I had similar planned for 
a D&D campaign I was thinking of running, and I wonder what sort of 
problems it might create.

"When infancy and childhood are past, the choice of a future way of life 
begins to present itself to young men as a problem.  Having hesitated for 
some time at the crossroads of their wavering judgement, they at last come 
to a decision:  Some (who have fallen in love with truth and virtue) will 
for the rest of their lives devote their entire energy to the pursuit of 
philosophy, whilst others (ensnared by the enticements of this world or 
burning with a desire for riches) cannot but devote all their energies to a 
life of pleasure and profit."
