You wield a sentient sword. Perhaps it was passed down to you, or found deep within a dangerous forest. Whatever the case may be, you and this sword are now bound by fate. Wherever you go, it goes, and no matter what you do to get away, it always seems to find its way back into your hands. What morals does the entity within your sword hold, what are its goals? What is your blade's history? What is your relationship with it; do you work together, or are you constantly in a battle for control?
- Skill Proficiencies: You are proficient in two of the following skills: Arcana, History, or Intimidation
- Tool Proficiencies: Longswords and a toolset of your choice
- Languages: Any exotic language, which your weapon shares with you.
- Equipment: A sheath enchanted to hide your blade's magical aura, a lucky talisman, and a pouch containing 10 gp
Many swords are made to be unique, and the one you wield is no different. Choose the shape and style of your blade, or roll on the table below.
