As a child you were taken by a secret druidic cult. You were taken to one of their temples and entombed within, acting as a source of power to help protect and empower the biome the temple was located in. Years, possibly decades pass before you eventually wake up. You find yourself alone and forever changed from the experience. You are much older then you were and can feel the wilds in your blood, which is reflected via the new changes to your physiology. You have also found yourself gifted with knowledge and abilities you do not quite understand.
You are now once again in charge of your agency. Do you seek the cult that did this to you for answers or revenge? Was there others taken with you? Are those who knew you back then still alive?
- Skill Proficiencies: Choose two from nature, medicine, survival, or animal handling.

- Languages: You know one of the following languages: Sylvan, Elvish, or Primordial.
- Equipment: A set of cult robes, a dagger, a memento from before you were taken, and a poisoner's kit or herbalism kit.

Suggested Characteristics
You were young when you taken, but due to your forced sleep, you are now much older than you should be. As a result still have some childish mannerisms and beliefs. But this experience hasn't left you unchanged, as you may be now very wary of strangers or feel compelled to help the needy so no one can take advantage of them like you were.
