As a travelling craftsman it is expected of you that you introduce yourself in the local guild home of your craft (or the most respected master of your craft, if no guild home is availlable). The guild wants to know where their journeymen are and under which masters the might already have worked on their travell. In return you will always find accomadtions, food and work in the guild home. Sometimes the might even house your companions as a charity action. Sometimes the work is unpaid and expected to be done by the journeymen but most masters will always pay for good work as they know themselves that travelling is not free of charge. Also there always is the possibilty to learn something new and get new recepies. Also the masters are admonished to issue a testimonial of your work to certify that you are doing good on your travells.
Suggested Characteristics
Travelling journeymen are all of a certain kind. Many of them have at least a liking for the travelling folk and might even use their craft to entertain people with a showing of their skills. Some like to travell alone, some in groups. Most prefer to not travell with other members of their craft, some do.
