You come from a family associated with a bandit king, making your living robbing caravans and lightly guarded nobles and merchants on the highways. You and the rest of your family have prices on your heads and have been sought out by the law for your entire life.

Now you want to leave this life behind and set out on the road of adventure. You've learned many skills that should help you on that path. You just need to figure out how to keep your head down until you can take care of your horrible reputation. Yes, it's deserved, but that's not who you are anymore and changing public perception is of paramount importance to you. 

You've lived in the forest for so long that a city will seem like a different world. Will the skills you've learned in your life of villainy serve you there? Will easy money still be a temptation? Can you change? 

Skill Proficiencies: Nature, Perception

Tool Proficiencies: Cartographer's Tools, vehicles (land)

Suggested Characteristics

Guilt can be a huge motivating factor and it certainly is for you. You will forever remember the dear on the faces of those you've robbed and hurt. But easy money and thievery are hard to leave behind. Can you overcome your urges to be the person you want to become?
