Outfitters are locations where adventuring and exploration gear can be purchased. Fictional outfitters may be an important place for adventurers, explorers, and others to acquire important items. They may be located in cities, towns, or near sites of interest. They are home to explorers, guides, adventurers, and retired heroes. They may offer maps, tours, or guides for hire.

When designing outfitters, consider what gear and items they have available. This may be dependent on the types of trips or adventures they cater towards. Also consider the expert knowledge or tips that might be known by those that work in or own such a place.
