Foreigner

Though the culture of different nations largely defines their people, it is not uncommon for people to travel to other nations for a variety of reasons. Depending on their age and upbringing during this migration, adventurers tend to retain some of their homeland's culture and adopt some of their new home.

Proficiencies & Equipment
Skill Proficiencies: History (Homeland)*, and History*, Nature*, or Survival* of your new nation as appropriate to the region and your character.

Feature: Resident
The new nation you call home dictates some of your mannerisms, knowledge, and maybe even your fighting styles or worldview. Consider how some of your previous nation's culture may interact (or conflict) with your new culture, as well as what age and what reason you made this change. You can roll randomly on the below chart, or choose one, but you can never choose a region that corresponds to your race.

Feature: Adaptable
Your ability to mould to your surroundings is impeccable, making different cultures feel more or less your home. When unaware of the customs of a different group of people, you usually know what to avoid until you know for certain what is commonplace and what is taboo. Depending on the situation, you may be able to blend in with people of similar cultures to what you are used to, or glean information on where best to obtain information like this.
