While your physical body has inhabited this world since its birth, your soul comes from an entirely different reality. You aren't quite sure how you got here, or who (or what) inhabited your new form before you. But you are here now, and this strange new life won't pause for you to get your bearings- but it will give you some help.
Knowledge from Another Life
Knowledge from your previous world- and occasionally, strange, murky memories of your new home - come to you in flashes. When you make an ability check that uses a skill, you can roll a d6 immediately after seeing the number on the d20 and add the number on the d6 to the check. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.
Deus Ex Machina
When you die during combat, you can choose to instantly come back to life as if you were resurrected with the Revivify spell. In addition, you choose 2 of the following benefits;
- You gain 50 temporary hit points
- You become immune to non-magical slashing, piercing, and bludgeoning damage for one minute, or until combat ends.
- You are hasted for one minute, or until combat ends.
- Your gain +2 to AC for one minute, or until combat ends.
- You regain two spell slots of 4th level or lower. The spell slot you regain must be of a level you can normally cast.
- You regain one spell slot of 5th-8th level. The spell slot you regain must be of a level you can normally cast.
- You instantly swap one prepared spell for another of equal or lower level. The spell must be one you can normally prepare.
Once combat ends, you take 1d4+1 levels of exhaustion. In addition, you roll a flat check with a DC of 5. If you fail, you lose this ability. If you succeed, you can use it again after seven days have passed, and the DC for the check is raised by +5.
