Prisoner

You have spent several years or centuries incarcerated, either in isolation or among others in the same predicament. Did you commit a crime so gruesome it still haunts your dreams? Where you wrongfully convicted? Did you get abducted by a powerful entity or make an enemy in high places? Or did you simply happen to be in the wrong place at the wrong time? Either way your imprisonment has come to an end and you are free once more. Do you want to return to your former life or move on to do something else? The path you take is up to you.

Suggested Characteristics

Depending on which background feature you chose your characteristics may vary greatly. However in both cases, it is safe to assume, that a prisoner wouldn't want to return to confinement after escaping or serving their sentence. Another thing they might have in common is indulging in all the things that you are denied while locked away. Be that food, drink, a warm bed or pleasures of the flesh. Depending on why they ended up in confinement in the first place, a prisoner can range from being a vicious, bloodthirsty killer, to a genuinely good person that is only trying to do good.
