Background (Charlatan)

“I am in the business of removing obstacles.”

Without divine or arcane magical ability, your options in the cutthroat world of drow society were limited. You either became an expert in death, or you died young. After honing your murderous arts in the Underdark, you made your escape from the city of your birth to strike out on your own. Your reputation as a nighinvisible killer strikes fear into those who would wrong you. But those who respect you earn your ready support.

  • You know what makes people tick, you can tease out their heart’s desires after a few minutes of conversation, and with a few leading questions you can read them like they were children’s books. Your favorite scheme is putting on new identities. Your facility with disguise makes it easy to insinuate yourself into any setting, the better to get your target alone.
  • False Identity. You have created a second identity that includes documentation, established acquaintances, and disguises that allow you to assume that persona. Additionally, you can forge documents including official papers and personal letters, as long as you have seen an example of the kind of document or the handwriting you are trying to copy.
  • Faction. You are a member of the Zhentarim, an organization of welltrained mercenaries, savvy rogues, and crafty warlocks who seek to expand their influence and power.
  • Personality Trait. You lie about almost everything, even when there’s no good reason to.
  • Ideal. You are a free spirit—no one tells you what to do.
  • Bond. Your mentor, a master drow assassin, is in prison for a murder you committed and you're totally okay with it.
  • Flaw. You’re convinced that no one could ever fool you the way you fool others.
