You are the scourge of caravans and merchants, taking what you want with swift tactics to overwhelm your targets. Whether you act alone or with a gang of others, you have studied and tracked the trade routes between towns, cities, or kingdoms, plundering its riches. As a caravan raider, you have lived a life of ruthless means, combining careful scouting with crushing might to pillage the wealth you so rightfully deserve from those foolish enough to travel unprepared and unprotected.

# Adventuring Motivation
Caravan raiders take advantage of trundling caravans and attack using swift and brutal tactics. As such, they are used to staying on the move and traveling when the money moves elsewhere, or when the local authorities are on their trail. When beginning your adventures, determine why you are on the move and if you are after something, or something is after you.
