Light on Your Feet. You can use a bonus action to make a leap of a distance up to 10 feet without provoking opportunity attacks . This distance increases by 5 feet each time your proficiency bonus increases. Once you have used this feature a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, you can’t use it again until you have finished a long rest . Additionally, when you would be knocked prone , you can use your reaction to instead move 5 feet in a direction you choose. This movement does not provoke an opportunity attack.

On a 1, your contact’s information is dangerously inaccurate. Adventures and Advancement: As you build your reputation, shady people approach you with requests to “discover” items of uncertain ownership.

APPEARANCE

A slender woman is indeterminate age, Athelia is defined most prominently by her colouring, with snow-white hand and ashen skin she stands out in a crowd, even before people notice the blue of her eyes in such a pale face. She is used to the stares of others.

She will tend to dress in a utilitarian manner, expecting to need to be able to move and travel easily and seems especially uncomfortable and unsure in anything anyone would consider more expensive or elegant attire.

She travels light - mostly because she knows she has to carry it all - and also because she always tries to find somewhere indoors to sleep, she is not above some of the finer things in life.

 

BACKSTORY

Athelia was born to the east of Endora, in a small farming village at the juncture of the Moor-Run river. The small village was home to only a handfull of extended families and made their living along the river and in the farms that stretched beyond. When Athelia was born it was immediately obvious that she did not belong.

Next of the rich, earthy tones of her parents she stood out like a sore thumb, her frost-white hair and ash coloured skin were nothing like her family. The deep, startling blue eyes like a summer sky were too strange for most to accept.

Her earliest memories were of her fathers anger towards her mother, and her mother's resentment of her. As a young girl she spent more time along than with her family, her sisters resented her for the friction she caused and her father resented her for what he assumed she was proof of and her mother resented the implication. In the village, she was more pariah than anything else.

By the time she reached her early teens she had learned that time alone was more comfort than she would get elsewhere, and she found herself delving old ruined buildings up and down the river, disappearing for the day before she was driven to return at dusk. She was barely to her middle-later teens when she left her family with a terse note and not much else. She suspected them simply glad she was gone and put them all from her mind.

From that day she spent years traveling back and forth from city to town, making her way as best she could, and growing her skills as she did. She was driven to learning the past through the ruins that she found across the continent, and as her skills grew she found herself digging deeper into the past and into the mysteries that she could find there.

She learned magic from wandering wizards and survival skills from thieves and bandits, she learned to capitalize on her advantages and reduce her disadvantages from everyone she could, but more than anything she looked in every town, village and city for the next mystery that she could solve.

 

Personality

Athelia has little patience for stranger, and feigns a great deal of disinterest in the lives of others, though deep down she seeks connection every time she meets a new person, she expects to be disappointed before long.

She is driven by curiosity and finding new mysteries to solve, she is slow to anger but will hold a grudge like no one's business. To those that show her loyalty and friendship she is especially defensive, though she has trouble returning the affection.

At least you have a few more choices in A5e than o5e. lol

Thanks for the application.

Good luck in final selection. Oh and her name isn't in the application, still says NAME.

Fixed!

Level 1 is both one of my favourite and least favourite levels. I like low levels because they feel a little more grounded and real, but also there are fewer options both for things like background and for mechanics, but its still a lot of fun.
