26. Scholar: Not all treasure is silver and gold, mate. Sometimes knowledge is the greatest treasure you can find. You may be an amateur archaeologist, seeking the secrets of civilizations long dead. You may be a researcher, attempting to unlock the secrets of magic. You tend to prefer exploring locations that have some sort of historical or educational value, rather than simply because loot may be found there. Still, treasure is a nice bonus to learning something new. And of course, there's the possibility that you might find some ancient artifact that belongs in a museum!

27. Fugitive: Whether you're running from the law, running from a band of mercenaries, or running from bill collectors (I plan to use this one actually), you're running from some group of people who want you to face something that you really dont wanna face.

Mercenary: More due to a huge ego than for the material wealth, you have chosen not to acknowledge any masters, only clients. You tend to get annoyed when people get all high and mighty in front of you.

29: My Destiny Said I Would: For some reason, you are fated to be an adventurer, whether you like it or not.
30: ...And I Said I Wouldn't: You were prophesied to bring doom to the world, and you decided to prove the fortune-teller wrong.
31: Adventuring is Fun!: You like that thrill you get from being a hero, and thus, you became one full-time.

32. Salvager: There's a lot of great stuff to be found in dungeons, whether it's lost treasures of a bygone age, gear from unlucky adventurers who didn't make it, or even harvested monster organs! And all can fetch a great price on the open market. You got into adventuring for one thing, and one thing only, profit. All that "junk" lying around the abandoned fort? Just a few repairs and it's as good as new and ready to sell. That artifact that's required to prevent the destruction of the world? Probably should double the price for that. Maybe even triple.

33. Kin of a Villain: One of your relatives or ancestors is known and reviled throughout the world. Maybe your uncle is the corrupt baron who overtaxes his citizens, or your grandmother is a lich of great powers. All your life, you've watched "heroes" take a crack at your family, only to fail. Will you follow in your relative's footsteps and possibly even depose him/her? Or will you rebel against your heritage and become a hero who ends your relative's villainy once and for all?

34. Refugee: Some time in the past, your home suffered a great tragedy. Perhaps there was a terrible plague, a battle that razed it, or a terrible magical accident that sent it the way of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. In any case, you and many others were driven from your home, and are now rootless. You adventure because you no longer have a place to call your own, but as an adventurer, you can make your own. Perhaps one day you'll lead others like you, who were displaced by events beyond their control, and forge a new home for yourselves in the world. But those days are far from now. For now, it's time to roll up the bedroll, pack up the tent, and start moving again.

35. I Will Find You - You and a friend or someone you love (parent, child, sibling, lover, what have you) have been separated by some awful calamity such as a war or other disaster, or maybe the person has been kidnapped or has gone missing for some reason. You have made it your mission to find this person again.

36. Hopeless Addict: You are addicted to some sort of drug. While the drug has no deadly effects if taken properly, you go through terrible withdrawals without it. Because of this, you adventure to make money to support your habit. You know you're pathetic, spending money that you risked your own life to get for a short buzz, but quitting's just so damn hard!

37. Cultural Spy: Your people have a reputation for being ignorant and backwards. You are out to learn about other cultures and bring back ideas that can raise your people up from the low regard they are held in.
