The adventurers are basicaly heavily armed backpackers wandering the earth to see the sights and hear the sounds of wonderous places and get themselves into some adventures.Just like today the adventurers are super rich compared to the indigenous population and treat everything like it can be bought with there overvalued money. The average commoner is likely to harbour great jealousy and hatred of these middle class elitists and will spit in their soup or beer whenever possible but will also recognise the value the adventurers have to the local economy.On the other hand if adventurers come into a village and spend super amounts of wealth cleaning out the local stores of equipment and provisions trhen they have inflated the prices of whats left (if any) putting the goods even further beyond the reach of normal people. This is liokely (eventuall) to lead to some sort of peasant revolutionary movement which no doubt will be cut down brutally by the local lord and his hired help (the adventurers)</blockquote>
