Echoing Soul

Character optionVRGRp. 222014

Your soul isn't your own or, at least, it wasn't always yours. Whether you've lived past lives, your soul was swapped into a different body, or you have a link connecting you to another being, you experience echoes from another life. These echoes grant you knowledge, talents, or even languages you can't always explain, but they also intrude on your perceptions and beliefs unexpectedly.

Roll on or choose an option from the Soul Echoes table to determine the nature of this Dark Gift. Additionally, you gain the traits that follow.

Soul Echoes

d6Echo
1My soul is linked with that of a person elsewhere, perhaps another domain, world, or plane.
2I have lived many times before, my soul reincarnating each time I die rather than passing on.
3My consciousness was removed from my original body and implanted in this one.
4I was physically and spiritually merged with another being.
5I share my body with an intangible, otherworldly force.
6Time fractures around me, and I sometimes collide with my own past or future.

Channeled Prowess

You gain proficiency in two skills of your choice.

Inherent Tongue

You can speak, read, and write one additional language of your choice.

Intrusive Echoes

Immediately after you make an attack roll, an ability check, or a saving throw and roll a 1 on the d20, your soul's memories emerge and overtake your perceptions and experiences. You might see people around you as someone other than who they are, or you become disoriented by a double-experience of the world around you. Roll on the Intrusive Echoes table to determine the effect of these vivid memories and perceptions. Once one of the effects occurs, these intrusive echoes can't manifest again until you finish a short or long rest.

Intrusive Echoes

d6Effect
1You are charmed by a creature you can see (of the DM's choice) for 1 minute or until the creature damages you.
2You are frightened by a creature you can see (of the DM's choice) for 1 minute, or until the creature damages you.
3You perceive another time or place around you until the end of your next turn. During this time, you are blinded to your actual surroundings.
4You perceive a different time or place overlapping your surroundings. Your speed is halved until the end of your next turn.
5Memories and sensations overwhelm you. You are incapacitated until the start of your next turn.
6Your memory is one of triumph. You can reroll the ability check, attack roll, or saving throw that you just made. You must use the new roll.
