You lived a life full of adventure, fighting, loot, and glory. Until your party died, at which point you vowed never to wield the sword, staff, or bow. You lost all desire to delve into dungeons. However, an unknown force pushes you back into the fray, inciting the flame of adventure in your soul. You suddenly have the will to fight once again, though the scars of the past still weigh heavily on your heart and you are still uncertain of who you were back then.
