Curious Creation

You are a creature that is not natural. Whether you were of a paranormal origin, created artificially, or experimented on by researchers of any kind- you do not belong to the normal order of the world.

Maybe you were kept in glass jars and closed cells, waiting for your turn to be abused and hating absolutely every second of it, constantly coming up with plans to escape your predicament.

Maybe you are, on the opposite side of the spectrum, loyal to those who gave you your life and the reason to live it, considering their will to be your own.

Or maybe you had been left to your own devices after being deemed a failure, or after your creators disappeared for some reason or the other.

Either way, thanks to the artificiality of your creation, your range of skills is much wider than those born naturally- with a cost.

Skill Proficiencies: Any one of your choice

Tool Proficiencies: Choose one from among alchemist's supplies, cook's utensils, weaver's tools, and thieves' tools.

Languages: Any one of your choice

Equipment: One trinket of special significance, a set of common clothes, and a pouch containing 15 gp.

Suggested Characteristics

Curious Creations are shaped by their experiences and relationships with their creators. Depending on how positive or negative these relationships are, the creature might be radicalized in any direction. Their flaws might thus be the practical results of that radicalization.
