You were banished from Sarifal. You should know why. Here are a few ideas to get you started, but feel free to come up with your own. Once you’ve chosen a reason for your banishment, be prepared to answer DM questions about your banishment.
| d6 | Why Were You Banished? |
|---|---|
| 1 | You defied an edict from High Lady Ordalf. |
| 2 | You did something that made the court of Sarifal look bad. |
| 3 | You caused a setback in the war with the dark fey of Winterglen. |
| 4 | You fell in love with a mortal from elsewhere in the Moonshae Isles. |
| 5 | You made a deal with Unseelie fey and got caught. It was lucky you were only banished instead of executed. |
| 6 | You were banished as part of a secret mission High Lady Ordalf sent you on. |
You were a noble or esteemed servant of the court of Sarifal. You have an air about you that makes mortals take note: possibly awe or anger, depending on the mortal. This influence works on commoner and noble alike, as many of the people in positions of leadership see you as a way to make contact with High Lady Ordalf. They might be less happy if and when they find out the truth of your situation.
