"Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content."

Almost all of the common people and other folk that one might encounter have one thing in common: they live out their lives without ever traveling more than a few miles from where they were born.

You aren’t one of those folk. You've been hither, thither, and yon. Perhaps you peddled wares out of a wagon or walked the land on a religious pilgrimage? You may have hunted a criminal over hill and dale, or been hunted yourself, or both?

Regardless, you've survived through rain and shine and snow and wind and worse. You have the tools and techniques to not lose your way, or at least to endure until you find it. Whether traveling a foreign land or finally coming home, you're prepared for whatever the road brings you.

Skill Proficiencies: Pick one from Survival, Perception, and Insight and one other skill

Tool Proficiencies: Any one of your choice, likely one that earned your keep or kept you moving forward

Languages: The language of a land you traveled through, which helped you stay out of (or get into) trouble

Equipment: One set of traveler’s clothes, any tool that you are proficient with, a spare set of worn boots, a towel, and a pouch containing 10 gp
