Piscean

You are a Piscean, born under the Pisces sign.  Pisceans' kindness, intuition, and vision often lead them to humanitarian or mystical walks of life, such as acolytes, counselors, or fortune tellers.  Regardless of their profession, Pisceans possess unhindered creativity and intuitive connections to the world around them.  When making a Piscean character, consider how their imagination and instincts affect the way that they live.  What is your character's relationship with the divine and mystical?  Are they overly concerned with how they affect others, or are they unabashed in their bizarre ideas?

Susceptible to calls from higher powers and causes, many Pisceans take to adventuring for either humanitarian or spiritual purposes.  Work with your DM to decide what your adventurer's call to adventure could look like.  Were they ordered by a divine messenger to embark on an adventure?  Did they receive a cryptic vision that they wish to understand?  Are these intuitive messages real, or is your character suffering from an overactive imagination?  Alternatively, you character could simply be doing honest, if not dangerous, work for the good of others.

A World of Their Own

Pisceans experience the world in a manner unique from other signs.  They process information from the lens of their own imagination, responding with their active creativity and gut instincts.  Their unique perspectives often quell problems caused by the pragmatic or the selfish, making them valuable additions to the situations they drift through-- assuming they can pull their head out of the clouds and relate to the task at hand.

Suggested Characteristics

Often living entirely in their own heads, Pisceans can grow especially untouched by the cruel realities of existence.  As such, they bring a gentle demeanor with them wherever they go.  While this disposition allows them to see past the mistakes of others, it also leaves them in a vulnerable position.  A Piscean who never learns to protect themselves can grow up timid, absent-minded, and self-sacrificing to the point of martyrdom.
