| “ | You never stopped following your profession- you have always been an adventurer for as long as you have had a profession. Now, "adventuring" in this sense is not the same as the dragon-slaying heroism typical of in-play adventuring. Really, a more accurate description would be along the lines of "helpful grave-robbing", and probably involved a lot more sneaking around, running in terror, setting traps, and possibly taking credit for the work of others, or complete strokes of luck.

Summary
Adventurers come together from any walk of life, and in the same party you may find the wealthiest lord accompanied by an uncultured savage, brothers in arms. Adventurers pursue riches, knowledge, power, or anything that interests them with burning passion, taking down evil (or, sometimes, good) in the name of their chosen objective. Adventurers take part of many different roles, ranging from mighty spell-casters to incredible warriors to dexterous thieves, and many more.
