You fled the Neverseen, perhaps after finding out a dark truth, or the threat of death by another operative’s hands. Either way, you are not on their side.
*Inspiration from the Keeper of the Lost Cities Series*
Feature: Swan’s Grace
You can find safety with the Black Swan. They may not have you as an ally, but they know your loyalties and approve of them. With the DM’s permission, you may be able to wrangle assistance from a minor figure in the campaign.
Suggested Characteristics
| d8 | Personality Trait |
|---|---|
| 1 | I‘m a lone wolf. I’ve had it proven to me that others can’t be trusted. |

| 3 | My friend group is a very small circle of others that have proven time and time again where their loyalty lies. |
| 4 | I find happiness in conversation. A good talk with a good friend is a great way to relieve stress. |

|---|---|
| 1 | Greater Good. The Neverseen torture innocents, and they must be brought down. |

| d6 | Flaw |
|---|---|
