You are first and foremost a speaker for the fey. You aim to bridge the gap between our world and theirs’. Perhaps you are in service to them through a contract, possibly you are paying back a patron for their gifts to you, maybe you’re a slave doing what you can to earn your freedom, it could be you are secretly an expansionist looking for either to take bits of the other side’s land. No matter the truth, you seek to have two worlds collide. Whether you’re an ambassador, advocate or resolver of conflict; your interests remain somewhere between the fey and the mortal folk.
- Skill Proficiencies: Insight, Persuasion
- Languages: Sylvan and Undercommon
- Equipment: Noble and regal clothing, books on diplomacy and etiquette (both fey and mortal world), legal documents and relevant passport information, writing supplies, 10 gp
Feature: Diplomatic Privilege
You can gain access to important places within the Courts, whether or not they’re light or dark. As long as you or your comrades present yourselves as friendly, you can use your connections to gain entry to various places. Once your intentions are revealed, it’s possible that hostilities could form. However, you can receive your patron’s pardon for minor crimes or other consequences. Abusing this is not recommended.
