Many Wanderer clans specialise in a certain type of trade product, skill, or craft. Whether they be passed down and honed to perfection through the generations, or simply due to their trade routes, choose up to three aspects that your Caravan is particularly known for.

While the listed specialties are suggestions, work with your DM to determine the exact nature of your clan's specialty. A Caravan consisting of many families would boast a number of specialists, and those specialities would be further influenced by their location or demand.

Carpenters are highly sought after to maintain wagons and offer their services to isolted settlements, but they may also be skilled shipwrights or rare Doorwrights - a severely secretive family known for creating doors to permanent pocket dimensions, whose services are used by Wanderers to create portable workshops, storage units, or safe bedchambers. A caravan of Hunters might be traders of meat, or they might be famous hunters of rare beasts, or sellswords who take care of monsters. Clocksmiths might make timepieces or shambling Warforged Constructs of mass destruction.

Wherever they travel, the Wanderers enjoy the perks of being welcomed by most inhabitants. You can easily find work or a place to stay in a settlement you have visited before or are known in (Up to the DM's discretion). You can ply your trade or services in return for free lodging or some extra coin, and people generally take a liking to you based on your association with your Caravan. 

You also operate under a strict Wanderer's Law when interacting with other caravans. Though your relations may not be friendly, you will be treated with hospitality by any other Caravan you encounter in the wild. They will provide you with food, trade, lodgings, and medical care if necessary, and will pay for your funeral if needed. You may take this Law as an opportunity to mend relations between your Caravans, or you might use it as an excuse to take advantage of your mortal enemies' generosity - but keep in mind that the Wanderer's Law can only protect you for so long. 

Lost Ones are the outcasts and unwanted of the Wanderer clans. Breaking a law, offending an Elder, selling your trade secrets to outsiders or even leaving of their own accord can cause a Wanderer to become a Lost One. Their relations with their clan or Caravan are forever broken, and are branded as an outsider to all Wanderers, never to be dealt with or acknowledged by a Wanderer for the rest of their days. 

Some who are Lost seek to atone for their crimes through quiet, outside support; others leave the clans and never return, disappearing into settlements or turning instead to adventuring or mercenary work. You are one of these Lost Ones. Work with your DM to decide how you became shunned by the clans, and what kind of punishment you received. 

 If your character has the Wanderer background, you may select this background feature instead of Part of the Family.
Some Wanderers do not adher to the Wanderer's Law as strictly as others; allowing you a meager, if not conditional, connection to the clans. You know how to get messages, goods, or services on behalf of your party, though often at a price. 

As well as enjoying the benefits granted due to your past connection with your Caravan, you also know the common routes of Caravans, and can recognise the signs of a Wanderer clan's passage in the wilderness or a settlement.
