You grew up in what most would call the under cities. You lived you life in the sewers of large cities with all the other rats, literally. Living in the sewers you grow used to dealing with the sketchy skaven, and even learned how to communicate with them. You are not a stranger to criminals moving contraband, leaving dead bodies hidden in your living space, and eating garbage dropped from above. You learned to provide for yourself and keep a close eye on those around you who would steal from you. You have seen some things man, you've seen some things. You begin your adventuring with only what you could hold on to while you slept.
- Skill Proficiencies: Sleight of Hand, Survival
- Tool Proficiencies: Disguise kit, thieves' tools
- Languages: bad common, Queekish, is a chittering and hasty speech. Skaven dialogue is often littered with a hodgepodge of rapid squeaks and trills. Queekish words are short, clipped, and often repeated several times in a row in an effort to add emphasis to statements. Due to the speed with which Queekish is spoken, long sentences are often broken up into several fragments. As such, these fragmentary sentences must be pieced together to form coherent thoughts, especially during long stretches of dialogue.
- Equipment: 3 random trinkets, a set of common clothes, a backpack, and a belt pouch containing 10 gp
Feature: Sewer Trade Routeso
When you enter a city you instinctively know if there are established trade routes using the sewers under the city. When you are not in combat you may choose to travel the sewers and lead your companions to any black markets or thieves guilds attached to these trade routes. You also know enough that if you had to move things across the city without being noticed you could find a way to do so using the sewers.
