What songs are you best known for? Roll 1d6:

1	The Tinker’s Two-Step. A humorous fairy tale about a gift-giving traveler. Start with a Reed Whistle. Anyone in earshot must pass a WIL save to perform an act of violence.
2	The Sylph and Her Lover. A bawdy tale of lost love. Start with a Breeze Knot (3 charges). Creates a strong breeze. Recharge: Tie it to a mast during a storm.
3	Harper’s Devotion. A sad, short tale about a musician that falls in love with a star. Start with a Celestial Lute. Reveals the constellations above, no matter the weather.
4	The Reed Fisher. A celebrated song about a massive carp that always seems to get away. Begin with a spool of River Twine (5 uses). Each dip into the river guarantees a catch, though it might not be pleasant.
5	Song of the Silver Stream. A wordless lullaby that mimics flowing water. Take a Stone Flute that can calm almost any river.
6	The Thrush and the Meadow. A moody tale told in alternating chorus. Start with a Feather Quill (1 use, petty). A map drawn with this quill reveals the most expedient course between any two points.

What pays your way across the land? Roll 1d6:

1	Performance	Performing at taverns always yields both room and board. Sometimes you even get tips! Start with an extra 10gp.
2	Bodyguard	You are a protector for those afraid to travel alone. Start with a Rapier (d8).
3	Wares	You buy low and sell high, always making just enough to get by. Take a single item worth 20gp (or less) from the gear table.
4	Transport	You deliver “delicate” packages throughout the lands. You have at least one contact in any major town.
5	Sailor’s Friend	Whether water, wind, or sail, your aid brings ships to their destination. For you, passage is always free.
6	Guide	You shepherd caravans and travelers across water-soaked lands. Start a map (petty) relevant to your next journey.
