Roamer Image

You have spent your life in the company of nothing but your thoughts, wandering through the wilderness from place to place, with no clear purpose in mind. You've survived purely upon your own instinct and skill, with nothing but the equipment on your back and the sinking feeling that maybe you were meant for something more in life.

 
Skill Proficiencies: To survive in nature, you need to see incoming danger. You get proficiency in Perception and Survival.
Tool Proficiencies: To survive, you need to use the plants in case of injury. Get a Herbalism Kit.
Languages: Having traveled around the world, you stayed at some countries longer than others. You naturally picked up one additional language.
Equipment: A set of traveller's clothes, a pouch containing 10 gp, a winter cloak, a hunting knife (dagger), a grappling hook and a herbalism kit.
 
Feature: Ways of the Wild

Your years of traveling have granted you great knowledge of the world and it's inhabitants. You know where almost anything can be found, whether it's monsters, animals, races, plants or more. Also, after so long of providing for yourself, you have become an expert forager. You have advantage on any checks made to forage for food, and you find twice as much as you normally would.

 
Suggested Characteristics

Roamers are shaped by their years of solitude in the wild. They tend to have unusual habits and are unaccustomed to dealing with people other than themselves (and the occasional monster that they stumble across).
