As a born Sorcerer you always had Magic within you. However in your world, either by politics, the way your communities lives or pure disdain from your family, you had to hide this side of you. Therefore you try to learn more about your powers in secret. You have a need for learning. A drive to research things that maybe is against the laws of your land, maybe is perceived as immoral by nature, or even down right horrific! But you. You want to research and develop it. Researching what and who you are in secret comes with difficulty. You learned from a young age that you must keep your Magic secret, which involves not only camouflaging your abilities by picking up other skillets, but also inherently lying to everyone one around you. Out of fear of what might happen to you or your lvoed ones.

Feature: Always listening

Since you always had to be on the look-out, you have learned to listen in onpeoples conversations. Maybe it was in order to easy your nerves if they found out about your secret. Or maybe you because you noticed you had a knack for it. If you can see a creature’s mouth while it is speaking a language you understand, you can interpret what it’s saying by reading its lips. And since you're always on the lookout for danger you can’t be surprised while you are conscious.

 
Suggested Characteristics

Pretending to be someone you are not requires dedication and preparation, which others might see as paranoia, and the knowledge that you might have to give up everything you've built for yourself at the drop of a hat in order to survive. Even though you have access to great power, this power pales in comparison to your (sometimes) inabilities to properly use it, since you've never undergone any true training.  However, you do have the potential for it, if you ever would be to be trained properly. Thus, your magical knowledge is less extensive than most people of the class as you.
