You were raised within a secluded martial order or trained by a renegade master who rejected the traditional Elven gatekeeping of the double-bladed scimitar. To you, the weapon is not a racial heirloom, but a physical extension of your own soul. Your training focused on "The Flow of Three," a style that integrates the two blades of your weapon with the "third blade"—your own body.
- Skill Proficiencies: Athletics, Acrobatics
- Tool Proficiencies: Smith’s tools (to maintain your unique blade)
- Languages: One of your choice
- Equipment: A set of traveler's clothes, smith's tools, a trophy from a fallen rival, and a pouch containing 10gp.
Feature: Way of the Twin Edge
Your specialized training grants you the following benefits:
- Martial Heritage: You gain the Revenant Blade feat. You ignore the "Elf" racial requirement for this feat.
- The Third Blade: You have mastered the art of using your momentum to strike with your body. Once per turn, when you take the Attack action and attack with a double-bladed scimitar, you can make one unarmed strike as part of that same action.
