Feature: Forgotten Knowledge
Your past lives have taught you a great deal about the world of Asdra and where you come from. When you attempt to learn or recall a piece of lore, if you do not know that information, you may meditate on the knowledge. At the DM's discretion, one of your previous lives may have known this knowledge and may impart it to you. If they do not know this knowledge, one of them may tell you which Immortal, if any, you may talk to who may have information on this topic.
Suggested Characteristics
Due to their multiple lives, Immortals value knowledge highly. They are always curious and looking for the next book or scroll that could give them a leg up, or teach them of something they've never heard of before.
