Amnesiac Image

Your past is a blank. Maybe sometimes you get flashes or moments of clarity, but most of the time you remember nothing before a particular point. It is up to you if you search for who you were, or choose to live this new life and leave the old one behind. Your condition could have been caused by any number of things, almost all traumatic. There are things you know how to do that you have no explanation for, and some things everybody knows that are a mystery to you. You must now make your way through this world that somehow feels both new and familiar at the same time.

Tool Proficiencies: Choose one tool or instrument proficiency that you may or may not be aware of.

You have the look of someone people naturally want to help. This may be due to an honest naivety, or a practiced look, but people can’t help but put themselves in your situation. Due to this, you are able to ask people for a place to stay and some food, and unless you have already created an ill impression or some other extenuating circumstance exists, they will help you. This can occasionally backfire, and your ignorance might get used against you, but most people will want to help.

 
Suggested Characteristics

One way or another, the world is new to you. Your experiences will shape who you become.
