You have no memory, whether by magic or might it was taken or perhaps given. Do you want to know who you were? Do you seek it or avoid it? The choice is yours... or is it? People from your past seem to find and recognize you, they drag up memories of your past life each time they bring something up. Amnesiacs who seek out their past typically keep diaries and those who avoid it but have it dragged up may adopt situational personalities, extreme rage in battle with a calm personality in daily life, graceful in cities but a bumbling fool in nature, and so on. Armed with strange skills you don't remember learning you adventure out.

Feature: Figures from the Past
Your DM randomly determines when you meet someone you know. It may be in a town, on the road, in a prison, or in a keep. No matter where some of these figures may grant you favors. Sometimes significant favors.
