You are the embodiment of the saying "One man's junk is another man's treasure." Always on the lookout for something you can use you've spent most of your life digging through old crates and barrels. To you dumpsters and trash piles are underrated treasure troves. You can always find the most interesting things and have innate ability to use those things in ways most never even consider, often cobbling parts from one item and another together to make something unique or useful, often using your finding to turn a coin.

- Tool Proficiencies: Tinkerer's Tools

Feature: Scavenger's Intuition
Thanks to your honed skills in scavenging, you have advantage with Investigation checks to find items when searching bodies, rooms, containers, and cluttered areas. Additionally, once per day you can repair or clean up up to 5 mundane items you have found through scavenging. Selling these items as a group can typically make you between 5 to 25 gold pieces. At the DM's discretion.
Suggested Characteristics
Scavengers are very unique individuals, and their personalities reflect that. A scavenger can be born from any type of background or social class. It's a keen eye and a creative mind that makes someone a scavenger not their social status.

Posted Sep 11, 2019This works until choosing Equipment or Gold in the builder. I've tried multiple times, and clicking Equipment sends it right to an error page. Perhaps because 'magnet' does not exist in the dndb inventory.
