On page 29, Basim is said to be an Assassin Mentor due to his red sash, although in-game the Mentor was Rayhan.

On page 80, four bandit archetypes are given as; Militia, Rogue, Pyro, and Destroyer. These archetypes align with the respective in-game equivalents; the unchanged Militia, unchanged Rogue, Fire-Keeper, and Goliath.
