Archaeologist

You've made a lifelong study of the lost and fallen cultures of the past, visiting their ruins, deciphering their written records, and examining their surviving masterworks. Perhaps you studied at Morgrave University or a similar institution, supplementing your time in the library with fieldwork amid ancient ruins in remote locations. Some archaeologists plunder the treasures of the past in search of wealth or fame, but most consider it their calling to learn from the past. In any case, the archaeologists of Eberron combine the qualities of learned historians with the grit of treasure hunters.
