Empowered, Variant[edit]
A man walks out of a tavern and is suddenly attacked by a group of assassins. He smirks, having known of their presence all along. The blades strike him and shatter, catching them off guard. He looks up at the group of men and shakes his head, and with a crimson flash in his emerald eyes, he dispatches them one by one until none of them are left. With that, he moves along.
A woman runs towards the village under attack by a red dragon, hoping it's not too late. With the flames roaring, people are fleeing, and a man yelled to her to do the same, but she promises to save the village. Confronted by the beast, she begins to call on what appears to be a spell and summons an enormous spear of ice. Before it can react, the dragon is pierced by the spear and killed, and shards of ice begin to fall from the sky like rain. The village is saved.
Born With a Special Power[edit]
Most people can wield a sword or axe. Some can cast powerful spells that can turn the tide of a battle in an instant. Fewer still can do both. But there are a select few born with not only those talents, but a unique power as well, the Spark. They are known as the Empowered. This trait bestows incredible powers that can crush foes, save allies, or even just make life easier for the wielder. It can appear in anyone, even if neither of their parents possessed the Spark.
(This is a class idea from Destiny.)
Creating an Empowered, Variant[edit]
If you're going to play an Empowered, Variant, think about a few things first. Who were your parents, and did either of them possess the Spark? If so, did they help you train yours or not? And if they didn't, how did they take to you having mysterious powers? Also think about how it has affected your life. Did you tend to avoid people throughout your life in an attempt to hide your powers, or did you want the world to know that you were different, perhaps even superior? Consider what your character has and will do with their gift, or curse, if that's how they see it.
