Your soul has been reincarnated into a new form, but the echoes of your past life linger within you. The wisdom, knowledge, and experiences from one of your previous characters bleeds through, granting you unique abilities or insights. This past life may come to you in moments of clarity, through memories, or simply as instinct. You can only get these benefits from one of your previous PC's you can't get it from multiple PC's that you played.
-
Advantage on History and Survival Checks: You gain advantage on History and Survival checks. Your past life has granted you an innate understanding of the world, allowing you to recall key events or navigate harsh environments with greater ease.
-
A Stash from the Past: Perhaps you hid a valuable object, your previous items you gathered or treasure during your previous adventures, and through this reincarnation, you remember its location. The key to unlocking this hidden wealth is now in your hands.
-
Flashes of Past Life: As you continue your journey, flashes of your past life appear—these could come as vivid dreams, sudden memories, or intuitive insights that help guide your actions. At the DM's discretion, you may gain advantage on a Wisdom (Insight) or Charisma (Persuasion) check if you use these past memories to help in a situation.
- Unique Ability: If the character you choose had any unique abilities that they can do at will, you can retain one of that ability. (Ex. if one of your old characters had an ability that they can do at will like mind reading, truesight, speak with animals, or other unique ability you can get one of that ability for this character to have).
- Ghost of the Past: You are being hunted by the trauma or event from your previous life, and it is manifested into ghost or shadow. This manifestation of trauma will sometimes attack you in combat, exploring/traveling, and sometimes when taking short rest or long rest. Only you and someone can do telepathic link with you can see and interact with these apparitions and these apparitions can hurt you.
