{"name":"Recovered Cultist","overview":"Since the Divergence, the influence of the Betrayer Gods\r\nwas sealed away with the rest of the pantheon and a time\r\nof religious rediscovery began anew. Through the small\r\nnet of the Divine Gate, however, the will of the darker\r\ndeities could still reach out, could still whisper and promise.\r\nThe rise of cults are scattered and separated, with little\r\nto no unity between the greater evils. Hidden hierarchies\r\nof power-hungry mortals corrupt and seduce, promising a\r\nsliver of the same power they had been promised when the\r\ntime comes to reap their harvest.\r\nYou once belonged to such a cult. Perhaps it was brief,\r\nembracing the rebellious spirit of youth and curious where\r\nthis path may take you. You also may have felt alone and\r\nlost, this community offering a welcome you had been\r\nsubconsciously seeking. It\u2019s possible you were raised from\r\nthe beginning to pray to the gods of shadow and death.\r\nThen one day the veil was lifted and the cruel truth shook\r\nyour faith, sending you running from the false promises\r\nand seeking redemption.\r\nYou have been freed from the bindings of these\r\ndangerous philosophies, but few secret societies find\r\ncomfort until those who abandon their way are rotting\r\nbeneath the soil.","skillproficiences":"Religion and Deception.","toolproficiences":"","lifestyle":"","languages":"One of your choice.","equipment":"Vestments and a holy symbol of your\r\nprevious cult, a set of common clothes, a belt pouch\r\ncontaining 15 gp.","features":"[b]Feature: Wicked Awareness[\/b]\r\n\r\n\r\nYour time worshipping in secrecy and shadow at the\r\naltar of malevolent forces has left you with insight and\r\nkeen awareness to those who still operate in such ways.\r\nYou can often spot hidden signs, messages, and signals\r\nleft in populated places. If actively seeking signs of a cult\r\nor dark following, you have an easier time locating and\r\ndecoding the signs or social interactions that signify cult\r\nactivity, gaining advantage on any ability checks to discover\r\nsuch details.","suggestedcharacteristics":"Use the tables for the Acolyte background in the\r\nPlayer\u2019s Handbook as the basis for your traits and\r\nmotivations, modifying the entries when appropriate to\r\nmatch your ties to your intent on fleeing your past and\r\nrectifying your future. Your bond is likely associated\r\nwith those who gave you the insight and strength to\r\nflee your old ways. Your ideal probably involves your\r\nwishing to take down and destroy those who promote\r\nthe dark ways you escaped, and perhaps finding new\r\nfaith in a forgiving god.\r\nFate-Touched","traits":"","ideal":"","bond":"","flaw":"","tabledata":"","tags":"","isShared":"on","templateId":"24","blockId":"404979"}
