Perhaps a disaster left you scarred, or a failure cost you a piece of yourself; no matter how, at some point in your life you lost some (or the function of a) part of your body. Not content to live the rest of your days disabled, you studied the arcane, or employed the services of someone who has, in order to create a magically powered replacement.
- Skill Proficiencies: Arcana, Medicine
- Tool Proficiencies: Tinker's Tools
- Languages: Deep Speech
- Equipment: altered sage's robes, an amulet or ring displaying the sigil/emblem of the organization you employed or studied under, the augment of your choice, a pouch containing 15gp.
Feature: Arcane Augment
At some point in the past, you have lost function to a part of yourself, but through study of the arcane (or the help of those who have already done so) you have replaced it with a magically powered replacement. This augment functions as if it were the normal body part however anti-magic fields will disable the augment. (Your DM decides how societies react to your augmentation, they may be curious and inquisitive or believe you to be a heretical abomination.)
