Suggested Characteristics

Former slaves are driven by their desire for freedom, not just themselves but for others. They hate to see those around them endure anything like the injustice and subjugation they experienced. Free to explore the world, they rarely stay in one place and instead wander the land, breaking the bonds of oppression wherever they can.
