You haven't the foggiest idea who you are or where you come from. Maybe you have a name or a trace of the person you once were, maybe you've retained common knowledge of how the world works, but for the most part, you have a reflex to reach for a life experience that isn't there anymore. Everything is relatively new to you now. You wonder if you'll forget the person you are in this moment once you regain your memories, the thought may be terrifying or comforting depending on how your character feels about themselves.
Depending on your situation, dreams could be a source to piece together your broken memory, flashes of the past dance by in your nightmares- it's up to you to make sense of them and regain what you've lost.
Your memories could return through diligent practice and training, honing one's body and/or magic unlocks the mind in ways that were previously thought impossible.
Feature: Regaining Lost Ground
As you level up, new skills and languages will unlock for you... work with your DM to figure out the best timing for this You can also regain memories in your sleep through RP- once again, that is up to the DM and the player
