Traveler
A Traveler is a being that lives a relatively simple life and, as the term applies, "travels" from one place to another, or one reality to another, and learns from the reality around them.
It is not a religion or an organization or even a group, per se. They are people that seek knowledge for the sake of knowledge. Sometimes to impart that knowledge, sometimes to unlock knowledge that remain hidden, and sometimes to uncover injustices.
Travelers are attuned to the reality around them. They learn the rules of that reality, including where the loopholes are, and familiar themselves with them.
In many ways, they are multiverse monks. They wear simple clothing, bring only what they can carry on them, and use what is provided to them by other travelers.
Principals
Communal Living
Travelers do not own property. Since they do not know where the multiverse will take them next, they have no need to stay in one location. There is no "putting down roots". If they carry currency, it is a small amount and in various denominations.
Travelers survive through communal property. A "travel house" is provided for all travelers to use when in the area. A communal "bank account" is provided for local currency. Any money collected goes back to the account for other travelers to use when needed. There are even "travel pets" (usually cats) that serve as emotional companions if so needed. They are pretty good judges of character and will present themselves only when they deem someone friendly.
Transportation
Travelers go about by whatever means present them. Walking is not out of the question, as travelers love to go from place to place by foot. But, as being in tune with the cosmos, they are also aware of other means, such as portals and dimensional gateways. If there are local vehicles available, they will use those as well.
Not Pacifists
Although Travelers are not violent or seen as aggressive in nature, they are far from being pacifists. They are not afraid to take up arms when faced with injustices being committed. However, their choice of weapons are bladed, or objects like staffs, or with bare hands. Travelers are often masters of martial arts and will be willing to teach others in their ways.
Awareness
Most Travelers do not have superpowers. They do, however, possess an awareness of the reality they are in. This often comes through years of mediation and learning to attune themselves to the environment.
A Traveler can learn a new language in an hour through meditation. They are aware of cultural mores in less time than that.
The way it is explained is that each reality has a particular "vibration". Through medication and insight, the Traveler can "attune" themselves to the vibration, and thus open themselves up to the communal environment.
