The simple joys of hearth and home wrap your view of the world, narrow as it is. Many seek to the ends of existence for joy that can be found in rocking a baby to sleep, teaching a child a game, or serving a simple meal to those who look to you for everything. Your home's decor on a budget is cozy and quaint, yet refined by your attention to detail. Nursing sick ones, coaching others through the crisis of the day, and a never ending list of chores keeps you busy from sunup to sundown and often anxious hours between.
As a homemaker, your job encompasses more than housing, from happiness and health to education and events. You are the ultimate jack of all trades. But there are few things you do better than anyone else, things that require a listening ear, a caring heart, and a gentle touch—skills that are priceless.
- Skill Proficiencies: Insight, Medicine
- Tool Proficiencies: Cook's Utensils, Sewing Kit or Weaver's Tools
- Equipment: a quilt, baking tin or pot or frying pan, recipe book, footstool or broom , common clothes, book of fairy tales or trashy romance novel, journal, family portrait in a locket or small frame, domestic pet, pouch with 100 sp (your life savings)
When you are away from the comforts of hearth and home, you know how to make others feel comfortable in many small ways, such as whistling or humming familiar tunes, massaging sore muscles, fixing holes in clothes, combing hair, using just the right spice to bring back memories of better times, or simply lending a listening ear. One allied creature that you designate that spends at least six hours of a long rest within 100 feet of you gains advantage on their next Constitution or Wisdom save before the next long rest (hint: roleplay this interaction).
