One of the oldest roles among communities of people, some have always been responsible for stalking and killing prey to provide life-sustaining food. There are, of course, also those who hunt for sport and glory, and some even hunt simply to prove themselves against the wild. Regardless of your reasons, you are a hunter, and you are quite used to taking down prey.
- Skill Proficiencies: Your choice of two from: Animal Handling, Nature, Stealth, and Survival
- Tool Proficiencies: Leatherworker’s Tools, Cook’s Tools
- Equipment: A hunting/skinning knife, an animal trap, a set of traveler’s clothes, and a pouch containing 10 gp.
You are adept at harvesting prey, and as such, so long as the area you are in has some form of edible game available, you can hunt to provide enough food to feed up to ten people (including yourself ) each day. Additionally, you are familiar with the commerce of hunting, so you are aware of the normal market prices for meats, pelts, horns, hunting supplies, etc. When in a settled area, you are also able to recognize and locate places and people who would likely be in the market to purchase and/or sell such things.
