You never met a problem that you didn’t want to solve. Why not make a living at it?
|
||
|
||
You might have been paid for your work as an investigator by a centralized authority, looking to protect the vulnerable, or you might have helped a group centralize its power by digging up dirt on its enemies. Perhaps you worked for yourself, moving from one investigation to the next as it suited you, or focusing on a particular type of investigation, like reuniting families or exposing charlatans. However you plied your trade, you had to be quick-witted, savvy in understanding the motivations of others, and adept at following the right leads.

# Adventuring Motivation
|
||
|
||
Investigators often work on the sidelines, examining the aftermath of others’ actions, not getting directly involved. As you begin your own adventures, consider what led to you taking up the mantle.

| d8 | Adventuring Motivation |
|
||
| 1 | Adventuring gives me the opportunity to investigate things I’d never encounter in my daily life. |
|
||
| 2 | Adventuring pays much better than investigative work ever could. |
|
||
| 3 | I believe that several of my investigations are related, but I don’t know how. I hope adventuring helps me figure out the bigger picture. |
|
||
| 4 | I made a mistake during an investigation that I can never take back. Adventuring might help me make it right. |
|
||
| 5 | I went undercover as an adventurer once and found my true calling. |
|
||
| 6 | I’m haunted by an investigation I can’t solve. Adventuring keeps me busy enough to put it out of my mind. |
|
||
| 7 | My work has been blocked by the powerful and connected. Adventuring puts me beyond their reach. |
|
||
| 8 | The investigator’s life can be a lonely one. Adventuring makes me feel like I’m part of a community. | |
