The Gentleman Adventurer is one with the financial means to live a comfortable, quiet life, but refuses to do so. At home in the most formal of balls, most prestigious of universities, the most lavish palaces, or the darkest of dungeons, the Gentleman Adventurer is a man for all seasons. They could be a soldier of fortune, or a privateer, or an archaeologist. Anywhere there is a chance for adventure, or great deeds, you will find them. Often, the Gentleman Adventurer will boast about their great deeds, sometimes embellishing a bit too much.

You can use this feature to dig up rumors from locals about myths and legends from locals in the area.

While called the Gentleman Adventurer, one does not need to be a male to follow the lifestyle. Anyone who is smart, self reliant, and comes from nobler stock may do so.
