Update root-level README and reorganize sources

Browse Source 
In an effort to mitigate questions from new, inexperienced users on how
to import data into Fight Club 5e, I rewrote and reorganized the
root-level README file to include detailed instructions on how to
compile their own compendiums using the sources found within this
repository. Some existing data, such as how to create your own
collection file, was moved into other READMEs under the Collections and
Sources directories.

I also took some liberty in reorganizing the directory structure of this
repository and renamed some of the top-level directories. In my view,
having sources under the "FightClub5eXML" folder didn't make a lot of
sense, so I moved those sources into the top-level "Sources" folder. I
made sure to update all of the collection files, along with the
"travis.yml" config file, to properly point to the correct folders.

Finally, while updating the "travis.yml" config file, I changed the
output folder of those build compendiums to be under a top-level
"Compendiums" folder. This folder is ignored by git.

<name>Fisher</name>
<proficiency>History, Survival</proficiency>
<trait>
<name>Description</name>
<text>You have spent your life aboard fishing vessels or combing the shallows for the bounty of the ocean. Perhaps you were born into a family of fisher folk, working with your kin to feed your village. Maybe the job was a means to an end—a way out of an undesirable circumstance that forced you to take up life aboard a ship. Regardless of how you began, you soon fell in love with the sea, the art of fishing, and the promise of the eternal horizon.
• Skill Proficiencies: History, Survival
• Languages: One of your choice
• Equipment: Fishing tackle, a net, a favorite fishing lure or oiled leather wading boots, a set of traveler's clothes, and a belt pouch containing 10 gp

</trait>
<trait>
<name>Feature: Harvest the Water</name>
<text>You gain advantage on ability checks made using fishing tackle. If you have access to a body of water that sustains marine life, you can maintain a moderate lifestyle while working as a fisher, and you can catch enough food to feed yourself and up to ten other people each day.
</text>
</trait>
<trait>
<name>Fishing Tale</name>
<text>You can tell a compelling tale, whether tall or true, to impress and entertain others. Once a day, you can tell your story to willing listeners. At the DM's discretion, a number of those listeners become friendly toward you; this is not a magical effect, and continued amicability on their part depends on your actions. You can roll on the following table to help determine the theme of your tale or choose one that best fits your character. Alternatively, work with your DM to create your own fishing tale.
d8 | Tale
1 | Lobster Wrestling. You fought in hand-to-hand combat with an immense lobster.
2 | It Dragged the Boat. You nearly caught a fish of monstrous size that pulled your boat for miles.
3 | Fins of Pure Gold. You caught a sea animal whose fins were made of pure gold, but another fisher stole it.
4 | Ghost Fish. You are haunted by a ghostly fish that only you can see.
5 | Nemesis Clam. A large clam containing a pearl the size of your head claimed one of your fingers before jetting away; one day, you'll find that clam.
6 | It Swallowed the Sun. You once saw a fish leap from the water and turn day into night.
7 | Dive into the Abyss. You found yourself in an underwater cave leading to the Abyss, and your luck has been sour ever since.
8 | Love Story. You fell in love with a creature of pure water, but your brief romance ended tragically.
</text>
</trait>
<trait>
<name>Suggested Characteristics</name>
<text>Fishers succeed only if they spend time at their jobs. As such, most fishers have a strong work ethic, and they admire others who earn their living honestly. Fishers tend to be superstitious, forming attachments to particular fishing lures or special fishing spots. They have a connection to the bodies of water in which they fish, and they think poorly of those whose actions adversely affect their livelihood.

<trait>
<name>Description</name>
<text>You were trained for battle on sandy beaches and rocky shores. You have launched midnight raids from swift ships whose names evoke terror in the hearts of your adversaries. The water is your second home, the rain your shelter, and the crashing waves your battle cry.

</trait>
<trait>
<name>Hardship Endured</name>
<text>Hardship in your past has forged you into an unstoppable living weapon. This hardship is essential to you and is at the heart of a personal philosophy or ethos that often guides your actions. You can roll on the following table to determine this hardship or choose one that best fits your character.
d6 | Hardship
1 | Nearly Drowned. You hid underwater to avoid detection by enemies and held your breath for an extremely long time. Just before you would have died, you had a revelation about your existence.
2 | Captured. You spent months enduring thirst, starvation, and torture at the hands of your enemy, but you never broke.
3 | Sacrifice. You enabled the escape of your fellow soldiers, but at great cost to yourself. Some of your past comrades may think you're dead.
4 | Juggernaut. No reasonable explanation can explain how you survived a particular battle. Every arrow and bolt missed you. You slew scores of enemies single-handedly and led your comrades to victory.
5 | Stowaway. For days, you hid in the bilge of an enemy ship, surviving on brackish water and foolhardy rats. At the right moment, you crept up to the deck and took over the ship on your own.
6 | Leave None Behind. You carried an injured marine for miles to avoid capture and death.
</text>
</trait>
<trait>
<name>Suggested Characteristics</name>
<text>Marines are looked up to by other soldiers and respected by their superiors. They are veteran warriors who rarely lose composure on the battlefield.

<name>Shipwright</name>
<proficiency>History, Perception</proficiency>
<trait>
<name>Description</name>
<text>You have sailed into war on the decks of great ships, patching their hulls with soup bowls and prayers. You once helped build a fishing vessel that single-handedly saved a town from starvation. You have seen a majestic prow in your dreams that you have not been able to replicate in wood. Since childhood, you have loved the water and have been captivated by the many vessels that travel on it.
• Skill Proficiencies: History, Perception
• Tool Proficiencies: Carpenter's tools, Vehicles (water)

Source: Ghosts of Saltmarsh p. 33</text>
</trait>
<trait>
<name>Feature: I'll Patch It!</name>
<text>Provided you have carpenter's tools and wood, you can perform repairs on a water vehicle. When you use this ability, you restore a number of hit points to the hull of a water vehicle equal to 5 x your proficiency modifier. A vehicle cannot be patched by you in this way again until after it has been pulled ashore and fully repaired.
</text>
</trait>
<trait>
<name>Life at Sea</name>
<text>Your life at sea and in port has shaped you; you can roll on the following table to determine its impact or choose an element that best fits your character.
d6 | Sea's Influence

2 | Solid and Sound. You patched up a war galley and prevented it from sinking. The local navy regards you as a friend.
3 | Favored. You insisted on thicker planking for a merchant vessel's hull, which saved it from sinking when it smashed against a reef. You have a standing invitation to visit the merchant's distant mansion.
4 | Master of Armaments. You specialized in designing and mounting defenses for the navy. You easily recognize and determine the quality of such items.
5 | Low Places. You have contacts in the smuggling outfits along the coast; you occasionally repair the criminals' ships in exchange for coin and favors.
6 | Mysteries of the Deep. You experienced an encounter with a possibly divine being while sailing alone. Work with your DM to determine the secret about the deep waters of the sea that this entity revealed to you.
</text>
</trait>
<trait>
<name>Suggested Characteristics</name>
<text>Shipwrights are resourceful carpenters and designers. They often have a dedicated spot at the local tavern, since shipwrights are invaluable to coastal communities.

<trait>
<name>Description</name>
<text>On a rickety barge, you carried a hundred longswords in fish barrels right past the dock master's oblivious lackeys. You have paddled a riverboat filled with stolen elven wine under the gaze of the moon and sold it for twice its value in the morning. In your more charitable times, you have transported innocents out of war zones or helped guide herd animals to safety on the banks of a burning river.

<name>Feature: Down Low</name>
<text>You are acquainted with a network of smugglers who are willing to help you out of tight situations. While in a particular town, city, or other similarly sized community (DM's discretion), you and your companions can stay for free in safe houses. Safe houses provide a poor lifestyle. While staying at a safe house, you can choose to keep your presence (and that of your companions) a secret.

</trait>
<trait>
<name>Claim to Fame</name>
<text>Every smuggler has that one tale that sets them apart from common criminals. By wits, sailing skill, or a silver tongue, you lived to tell the story—and you tell it often. You can roll on the following table to determine your claim or choose one that best fits your character.
d6 | Accomplishment

4 | River of Shadows. Your riverboat accidentally slipped through the veil into the Shadowfell for several hours. While you were there, you sold some stolen dragonborn artifacts before returning to this plane and paddling home.
5 | Gold-Hearted. You agreed to transport a family escaping a war. The baby began to cry at a checkpoint, and you gave the guards all your gold to let you pass. The family never found out about this gesture.
6 | Playing Both Sides. You once smuggled crates of crossbow bolts and bundles of arrows, each destined for an opposing side in a regional war, at the same time. The buyers arrived within moments of each other but did not discover your trickery.
</text>
</trait>
<trait>
<name>Suggested Characteristics</name>
<text>In general, smugglers value survival, and then profit, above other things. One could be a part of a larger organization, or might run a small smuggling vessel of their own. Smugglers live the lies they have told, and they have a natural ability to recall all the falsehoods and half-truths they have ever spouted.

6. Forecastle
The forecastle has the following features:
• Ballista. A ballista (DMG, ch. 8) is attached to the deck. Ten ballista arrows are stacked and secured nearby.
• Figurehead. Warships have an iron figurehead at the front of their forecastle, often shaped to look like a fearsome sea predator. This figurehead serves as the ship's naval ram.
• Railing. The forecastle has a 3-foot-high rail around its perimeter that provides half cover for Medium creatures and three-quarters cover for Small creatures behind it.
7. Quarterdeck
The quarterdeck has the following features:
• Ballista. On a warship, a ballista (DMG, ch. 8) is attached to the deck. Ten ballista arrows are stacked and secured nearby.
