Your parents left you in a cave when you were just a few days old. Some time later, a Drow found you and took you in as one of their own. The elf magic in the air has seeped it's way into your body after a while, and you gain many elven traits, such as:
- Your alignment grows one more step towards Chaotic if it is not already Chaotic.
- You gain darkvision, the elven life years on top of your normal ones, the ability to trance and proficiency in Perception.
After 6 short years, your Drow caretaker passed and other Drow realized your not a Drow and chased you out. You ran as far as you could before stumbling into a random cave in the Human Realm. You immediately found an old paper with your name on it, and went outside. You found a run down village, and your instincts directed you to a specific house where you found your birth mother's diary. You packed up everything else you knew was valuable, and set out to find your three siblings.

After staying in the Twilight Realm for 6 years then being forced to leave, your body took a while to get used to the disappearance of magic in the air everywhere. However Twilight magic is a bit different from normal Fey magic, and it affected your body in some way. Decide yourself or roll a die on the chart below to decide how it affected your character.
| d8 | Twilight Fey Magic Effects |
|---|---|
| 1 | From time to time, you feel extremely dazed and dizzy, sometimes to an extent where you feel like your will is just before passing out. This will ALWAYS happen when your in sunlight. |
| 2 | From time to time, your eyes(and sight)will go pitch black for a few seconds, this is your eyes seeking pure darkness again. |
| 3 | Sometimes, when your in sunlight for too long, the sun goes black and stops shining until your out of the sunlight. |
| 4 | When you do something you can decide, your palms go black, to purple, then back to normal. |
| 5 | Sometimes, your ears will flash to elven ears and then go back. |
| 6 | Your sight will sometimes go bright white, or dark purple that almost looks black. |
| 7 | You sometimes get flashes of your caretaker, and they disappear almost immediately. |
| 8 | If you look at the moon for a while, your sight will revert to your old village, but when it was still alive and unattacked. |
You gain elven abilities such as trance and darkvision, but as a side effect your alignment takes one step to chaotic and having grown up in basically darkness you are a bit sensitive to sunlight.
