Defected Clan Leader

Born into a wild lineage, you were raised to be the leader of a clan of (your race) since birth. However, upon your coming of age, you realized the vague hostility you felt towards being born into such a prominent role: all you ever wanted was to spread your wings and leave the clan. Days after your 'coronation', you fled with the necessary supplies to make your way in the wide world.

You left with your body tattooed and scarred by your time in the clan, which can be recognized by rivals within the region.

Characters with this background are generally Druids or Totem Barbarians.

Skill Proficiencies: This background grants proficiency in Persuasion, Nature, and Survival checks.

Tool Proficiencies: You have proficiency in Brewer's Supplies, Woodcarver's Tools, and Cartographer's Tools.

Languages: Choose one from Dwarvish, Elvish, Giant, Gnomish, Halfling, Orc, Sylvan, or Undercommon.

Equipment: You begin with a set of Woodcarver's Tools, 30gp you've stolen from your clan, and a Disguise Set.

Defected Clan Leaders are strongly loyal to those they love: they hated the clan for one reason or another, but they will latch strongly onto those whom they trust.
