Burden of Betrayal (LIVE - Sorisana Fentris)

You carry the heavy burden of your ancestor's betrayal, a secret that fuels your determination to atone and restore your family's honor. This dark legacy has shaped you, granting you unique abilities and an unyielding resolve to protect and redeem your lineage.

Benefits:

1. Relentless Resolve:

   • You have advantage on saving throws against being frightened or charmed.
   • Once per short rest, when you are reduced to 0 hit points but not killed outright, you can drop to 1 hit point instead. This represents your indomitable will to survive and uphold your family's honor.

2. Weight of Guilt:

   • Your awareness of your ancestor’s betrayal gives you a heightened sense of vigilance. You gain proficiency in Insight if you do not already have it. If you already have proficiency, you gain expertise, allowing you to add double your proficiency bonus to Insight checks.

3. Echoes of the Past:

   • Once per long rest, you can call upon the memory of your great-grandfather’s betrayal to fuel your determination in battle. As a bonus action, you can grant yourself a +1d4 bonus to attack rolls and damage rolls for the next minute. This dark determination comes at a cost, however; after the effect ends, you suffer disadvantage on all Wisdom and Charisma saving throws until you complete a short or long rest.

4. Haunting Visions:

   • You occasionally receive haunting visions or dreams of your great-grandfather’s betrayal. When you take a long rest, there is a 10% chance that you receive a vision that provides cryptic hints or warnings about upcoming dangers or encounters. These visions can be unsettling and leave you with a sense of foreboding, but they can also offer valuable insights.

Rolls:

• Saving Throws: Advantage on saving throws against being frightened or charmed.
• Relentless Resolve: No roll required, can be used once per short rest.
• Insight Checks: Add double proficiency bonus if you have expertise.
• Echoes of the Past: +1d4 bonus to attack rolls and damage rolls for one minute, disadvantage on Wisdom and Charisma saving throws after effect ends.
• Haunting Visions: 10% chance (roll a d10; on a roll of 1, you receive a vision) during long rests to gain cryptic hints or warnings.

Flavor and Roleplaying: This feat not only provides mechanical benefits but also enriches Sorisana's backstory and roleplaying potential. It reflects the burden she carries and how it shapes her actions and decisions. The combination of advantages and drawbacks encapsulates the dual nature of her struggle with her family's dark past.
