You are on page 1of 6

You are a travelling combatant, always on the lookout for

a new challenger. You duel with those who seem


competent enough to push you further. You might use
swords, magic, or even games of chance to test yourself
and your chosen foe. In the end there is nothing more
important to you than proving of your mettle.
Skill Proficiencies: Insight, Intimidation
Tool Proficiencies: One type of gaming set
Languages: One of your choice
Equipment: A token of favor from an admirer (a
handkerchief, flower, or love letter), a set of bone dice or
deck of cards, a set of travelers clothes, and a belt pouch
containing 12 gp

Your reputation and bearing as a duelist compels others to


accept your challenges. So long as you offer them a duel
while outside of combat, most NPCs who are not utterly
outclassed by your Level are willing to have a go with
you one-on-one, without the help of their companions or
bodyguards. Foes are usually willing to duel until first
blood, but some are even up for a fight to
unconsciousness or death, particularly if youve really
angered them.

Duelists are defined by their need for adventure, a


challenge, and the freedom to roam the world in search of
these things. They value the ability to do things their own
way and often have a past which reflects escape from a
stiflingly rigid situation. Yet they see the duel as a pure
expression of skill, and highly revere fairness in such
competitions.

You are a special kind of vagabond, one who spreads


wisdom and foreknowledge to those who seek comfort in
this world. Bearing omens and advice, you are born for

new horizons, bringing a little insight into the workings
of the cosmos wherever you wander.

Once per day you may attempt to use your fortune telling
tools to determine the near future of someone who has
come to you for advice. You learn vague impressions of
this future, such as danger, love, loss, or betrayal. You
may even use this Feature to discover your own future.

Inspiration to another PC, while doing a reading for them.

Fortune Tellers live lives that are intertwined with fate.


They understand that everyone has a role to play in the
future, and usually come to accept their own. This
acceptance leads them to a kind of serenity in the face of
danger, with the ability to act quickly when their
supposed destiny presents itself.

A seeker of fortunes, mostly lost and hidden in the ruined


places of the world, you are bravely greedy. Youre
undeterred by such things as traps, curses, and eternal
servitors and as often as not you solve the mind bending
riddles and puzzles that block your passage.
Skill Proficiencies: Investigation, History
Tool Proficiencies: Thieves tools
Languages: One of your choice (usually an ancient
language)
Equipment: Thieves tools, a grappling hook, 50 feet of
hempen rope, a set of travelers clothes, and a belt pouch
containing 10 gp

You are a master of solving puzzles, cryptograms, and


mathematical problems. Whenever you are faced with a
logic-based task barring your ability to proceed in a
dungeon or other treasure site, you may ask your DM a
single yes or no question about the nature of the problem,
and they must answer. This question cannot be so
specific that it would ruin the puzzle, but it can be one
that eliminates a number of possibilities or leads you
directly down the right logical path.

Treasure Hunters are by their nature seekers of material


things. This does not always mean that they are miserly
or even hedonistic. There are many reasons to be tempted
by the thrill of old and dangerous places. Many reasons
to need coin.
