Adept[edit]

You've always wanted to learn something interesting and different to make you stand out from the crowd, and now you have! With the tool skills you have learned they may just save your life one day and you are always ready for that moment.

Your learning has gotten you this far, but you are seeking more. What knowledge could draw you from your books to a life of adventure? Is there forbidden lore you seek? Did the promise of ruins and mysteries draw you from the comfort of your office? Did you learn secrets you weren't welcome to and choose to see the world instead of face the music?

Skill Proficiencies One skill of your choice

Weapon Proficiencies One simple weapon of your choice

Tool Proficiencies One tool kit of your choice

Languages One standard language of your choice

Equipment A trinket of your choice from your childhood, a set of common clothes, a book of your old teachings, and a belt pouch containing 10gp

Feature: Prodigy[edit]

You are one of the fastest learners out there. When trying to learn something (languages, proficiencies, or otherwise), for every week it would take to gain this, you reduce the time taken by 2 days.

Prepped[edit]

You are always ready to be ahead of a challenge. The proficiencies you have gained are chosen to specifically overcome certain obstacles and you are more inclined to buy equipment you may possibly need rather than what you actually need, leaving you always ready for action.

Suggested Characteristics[edit]

Most Adepts have a habit of trusting too much in their easy way of understanding things. Many Adepts suffer from unusual flaws and are stimulated by peculiar drives, it makes them ever more interesting to play and serves to bring a much more unique experience to the world and set out their destiny.
