You were owned by another sentient being. Either in a land where slavery is allowed, or kidnapped by a criminal organization like the Iron Ring, or taken by humanoids, you only recently regained your freedom. Choose who was your master, either a noble from a nation where slavery is allowed, a crime boss or a tribe of humanoids that held you prisoner. They may have been kind, but more than likely they were brutal. You know you will never give up your freedom again however. You are free now, and that is never going to change.
- Skill Proficiencies: Deception and Survival
- Tool Proficiencies: One type of Artisan's tools
- Languages: The language of your master.
- Equipment: One set of poor clothes, broken manacles, a small personal heirloom blanket, sack, small pouch containing 10sp
Feature: Not a Number
As a slave you performed what ever task your master demanded of you. Now that you are free you have let it be known that you will not be controlled again. Because of your history there are quite a few that give you a lot of leeway. Thieves will not attempt to cross an escaped pit fighter, and many temples offer aid to those that have suffered such as your self. You may not want their aid, but it yours for the asking.
Suggested Characteristics
Slaves tend to be either withdrawn or resentful of their past. Perhaps your master still lives and wants you returned. How you respond is up to you. Do you fight or do you flee? Does the sight of other s in chains raise your ire?
