Salinaire

Background

You grew up in a coastal town, apprenticed to an old archmage who claimed to recognize your potential. But your master seemed more interested in having a servant than a protégé and barred you from the advanced knowledge you craved, claiming you weren’t ready, that such magic was far too dangerous. Over the years, your resentment grew, and you made no secret of your discontent—the old man was holding you back from greatness!

Then one night, your master was ambushed on his way home, brutally beaten to death in the street. Witnesses claimed to have seen you commit the crime, and you were forced to flee for your life. You took on a new name and identity, but you fear that one day your past will catch up with you.

Special Abilities

• Human Heritage: Some half-elves gain the adaptability of their human ancestry
• Low Light Vision: The character’s eyes amplify light like a cat’s, allowing him to see in the dark. He ignores attack penalties for Dim and Dark lighting.
• Outsider: Half-elves are never quite comfortable in human or elven society, having a foot in both worlds but never fully standing in either. Because of this, they suffer a -2 penalty to Persuasion with all but others of their kind.
• Languages Known: Native (native, d8)
