New in SW5eThink of it as a brand-new SW5e trick: a background feature that grants you insider knowledge about your former owner or others who passed through the area. You can use that information for leverage or revenge, though it may draw unwanted attention.✨

You were once a machine, designed for a very specific task, with no mind of your own. You followed orders, never questioning the tasks assigned to you, often the mundane tasks nobles didn't want to waste time doing themselves. However, something happened in your existence that changed your programming, freeing you from your life of obedience.

Feature: Deviant Knowledge. When you served under a master, you would often hear secrets that weren't meant for your ears. Back then, however, you weren't alive. You have insider knowledge on your previous owner or perhaps others who passed through your area. This knowledge may be used for leverage, revenge, or other means, at the discretion of your GM. This knowledge, while it may prove useful in your adventure, may also make you a target for those whose secrets you possess.

Skill Proficiencies. Choose two from Athletics, Medicine, Persuasion, or Technology

You have grown to accept and even appreciate the event that freed you from a life of servitude. You are alive, and nobody can convince you otherwise. You fight to prove your worth amongst the living, find your place in society, strive to free others of your kind, and show them the same truth you know now.
