You were born in the City of Dum Ramil, but ever since you could remember, you were on your own. Despite this, you kept going forward until you could fend for yourself. After becoming a little older, you joined a small Sect in the backstreets and started on taking a variety of requests, not knowing if today was going to be your last day alive. Despite
this, you still managed to make ends meet while finding both friends and enemies within the city, as well as getting your hands on an artifact which you still use to this day. Eventually,
you became locally known as a reliable asset within your area of the backstreets.
- Skill Proficiencies: stealth, athletics
- Tool Proficiencies: Disguise kit, thieves' tools
- Languages: None
- Equipment: A small knife , a set of common clothes, an artifact from a ruin (choose from the list below), and a pouch containing 10 gp.
Sacred Artifacts:
- Shadowalkers’ Trinket—Surrounds you in a sinister aura and allows you to quickly move behind an ally or an enemy within 20 ft., without invoking attacks of opportunity.
- Pouch of Blinding Mist—Covers an opponent’s eyes with a black mist for 6 seconds, blinding them till the end of their next turn.
- Gloves of Loyal Grip—Return an object you threw up to 6 seconds ago back into your hand.
These artifacts’ special effects may only be used once a day, as a “bonus” action.
Your Sect got caught between the turf war of two much larger Sects, and was destroyed in the crossfire. Thankfully, you still had a very desirable skill set and there would definitely
be others that would be willing to work with you. Despite this, you ended up leaving the city. What led you to take such an action?
