At some point, you were subjected to the wilds and thrust into the unknown with little tools or help. While in the wilderness you endured a hardship or trauma that has forged your will into the rugged unstoppable living force that it is today. This hardship is essential to you and is at the heart of a personal philosophy or ethos that often guides your actions. You can roll on the following table to determine this hardship or choose one that best fits your character.

d6	Hardship Endured
1	Nearly Drowned. You hid underwater to avoid detection by enemies and held your breath for an extremely long time. Just before you would have died, you had a revelation about your existence.
2	Captured. You spent months enduring thirst, starvation, and torture at the hands of your enemy, but you never broke.
3	Sacrifice. You enabled the escape of your fellow soldiers, but at great cost to yourself. Some of your past comrades may think you’re dead.
4	Juggernaut. No reasonable explanation can explain how you survived a particular battle. Every arrow and bolt missed you. You slew scores of enemies single-handedly and led your comrades to victory.
5	Stowaway. For days, you hid in the bilge of an enemy ship, surviving on brackish water and foolhardy rats. At the right moment, you crept up to the deck and took over the ship on your own.
6	Leave None Behind. You carried an injured marine for miles to avoid capture and death.
