{"name":"Apostate","overview":"Even the most devoted and unwavering followers of a cult\r\ncan sometimes leave their beliefs behind. Whether out of\r\ndistrust of the divine or inability to tolerate certain horrors\r\nhappening despite its intervention, some characters become\r\nApostates. Once you have abandoned your faith or left the\r\ncircle you belonged to, relations with the past are hopelessly\r\nclosed off. In times of need, for example when seeking refuge\r\nin places of worship, Apostates must disguise themselves as if\r\nthey were still part of the clergy they have abandoned.","skillproficiences":"Stealth or Deception, Religion or History","toolproficiences":"Abjurer\u2019s pack, calligrapher\u2019s supplies","lifestyle":"","languages":"","equipment":"An abjurer\u2019s pack, 5 incense sticks or 5 perfumed\r\ncandles (depending on your Birthmoon; Full: vanilla and\r\nhoney; New: licorice; Ascending: Mint; Descending: sandalwood),\r\na small knife, a tunic, common clothes, a purse with 5\r\ngp, a silver statuette worth 10 gp stolen from an abandoned\r\nholy place","features":"[h2]Feature: Wolf Amidst Lambs[\/h2]\r\n[p]Thanks to the years spent in their former cult, you are able to\r\npass yourself off as a devout follower in communities where\r\nyou are a stranger; this way you can find asylum, respect,\r\nand assistance for a week; if you dedicate at least two hours\r\na day to caring for the faithful, you will earn a paycheck of\r\n2d6 silver coins per day; after a week, rumours about your\r\naccount begin to circulate within this new community, so that\r\nit would be time to look for other places to go before your\r\napostate identity is revealed.[\/p]","suggestedcharacteristics":"It is not unusual for apostates to totally abjur their previous\r\nreligion. Some simply tend to deviate from the dictates of the\r\nfaith of origin, while others deviate to the point where they\r\nreject them totally or even oppose them. As they are each a\r\nunique case , this does not necessarily mean that they had such\r\nrelevance as to be excommunicated or driven out d rastically,\r\nbut over time the rumours about them could spread, making it\r\ndifficult for them to interact with their clergy of origin.","traits":"d8| Personality Traits\r\n1| I am always on the lookout, and I constantly watch my back.\r\n2| I cannot hold back a laugh when something unpleasant happens to my former cult or its members.\r\n3| I express myself in a calm and sweet voice, even when I am angry.\r\n4| I avoid giving clear information about my account and my past, I give vague and evasive answers.\r\n5| I prefer to count on my own skills rather than other people.\r\n6| I have a great memory for names and faces.\r\n7| I have lost faith in religion and the divine.\r\n8| I tend not to trust clergy or religious figures in general.","ideal":"d6| Ideals\r\n1| Honor (lawful): My word is worth more than any supposedly sacred writing or false prophecy.\r\n2| Anarchy (chaotic): I do not believe in hierarchies, nor in the authority of one person over another.\r\n3| New life (neutral): I want to forget the past, and I want the past to forget about me.\r\n4| Truth (neutral): I intend to find out what my former cult hides and spread the truth.\r\n5| Alms (good): Even today, every coin I give to those in need, is for me a small step towards serenity.\r\n6| Vengeance (evil): My former cult will pay; churches will burn, false idols will be knocked down, and the deceitful tongues of priests cut out.","bond":"d6| Bonds\r\n1| I was set up; someone else is guilty of the heresy for which I was excommunicated.\r\n2| I fell in love with a person against the dictates of my religion, so I had to flee.\r\n3| There is a person within the hierarchy of my former cult that I will always trust.\r\n4| I discovered a terrible truth about my church, and they are hunting me down to silence me.\r\n5| A poor man I was unable to heal whispered a dark omen to me on his deathbed.\r\n6| I have never lost my faith and it still guides me today.","flaw":"d6| Flaws\r\n1| Pessimistic: If something can go wrong, it will.\r\n2| Paranoid: I see shadows spying on me everywhere.\r\n3| Bad liar: I become visibly uncomfortable when I lie.\r\n4| Hypocrite: I judge others severely, but, when it comes to myself, I am lenient.\r\n5| Obsessive: When I set myself a goal, that is the only thing I see.\r\n6| Fatalist: I rely too much on fate and I do not care much about working to obtain favourable results.","tabledata":"","tags":"","isShared":"on","templateId":"24","blockId":"1097461","world":"11838046-c0f9-4ba7-b9ff-eb170dcb2c20","folder":"17034"}
