Suggested Characteristics

Use the tables for the acolyte background below as the basis for your traits and motivations, modifying the entries when appropriate to suit your identity as a guild agent.

Your bond might be associated with other members of your guild, or a location or an object that is important to your faction. The ideal you strive for is probably in keeping with the tenets and principles of your guild, but might be more personal in nature.

2	I can find common ground between the fiercest enemies, empathizing with them and always working toward peace.
