Well, it's going to be hell. My story is set in a Medieval fantasy world and commoners tend to be mere farmers, blacksmiths, merchants, traders, fishermen, constructors, and soldiers etc. With not much payment and heavy on taxes. My life would end much sooner if I was recruited as a soldier and not have much luck and fortune on my side. It depends how competent your high ranked officers are.
Even if I was lucky to survive, I have to be worry of raiders, beasts, and mystical entities that would kill me day and night.
If I was born as a noble, I may enjoy the luxurious life but I have watch my back from any potential assassins sent by my rivals, even from my own family because of their envy towards me. Depending on what position of power I am at. All this living in a land which is mostly a desert called Araby.
So yeah, life in my comic's story would fill me with paranoia, I am fine from where I am right now.
