REBORN

Death isn't always the end. The reborn exemplify this, being individuals who have died yet, somehow, still live. Some reborn exhibit the scars of fatal ends, their ashen flesh or bloodless veins making it clear that they've been touched by death. Other reborn are marvels of magic or science, being stitched together from disparate beings or bearing mysterious minds in manufactured bodies. Whatever their origins, reborn know a new life and seek experiences and answers all their own.

!WARNING!:

If you enter the Underdark Lolthite Temple or the surface Shevarash Temple as someone against their dogma and get caught, it will be considered NVL.

Exceptions exist if there is a DM or event that invites player to these places

Reborn suffer from some manner of discontinuity, an interruption of their lives or physical state that their minds are ill equipped to deal with. Their memories of events before this interruption are often vague or absent. Occasionally, the most unexpected experiences might cause sensations or visions of the past to come rushing back.

Rather than sleeping, reborn regularly sit and dwell on the past, hoping for some revelation of what came before. Most of the time, these are dark, silent stretches. Occasionally, though, in a moment of peace, stress, or excitement, a reborn gains a glimpse of what came before.

Maybe a physically painful moment. What mark or scar on your body does it relate to? A memory brings tears to your eyes. Is it a bitter or cheerful memory? Does recalling it make you feel the same way? You recall a childhood memory. What about that event or who you were still influences you? A memory brings with it the voice of someone once close to you. How do they advise you? [...]

Reborn might originate from circumstances similar to those of various undead or constructs. You were magically resurrected, but something went wrong. Stitches bind your body's mismatched pieces, and your memories come from multiple different lives. After clawing free from your grave, you realized you have no memories except for a single name. You were a necromancer's undead servant for years. One day, your consciousness returned.

- Due to the limited amount of subclasses in the server, the domain of the worshipped god does not need to perfectly match up. Make sure it makes sense!

Roleplaying Tips

Embrace your character's unique perspective on life, as someone who has been reborn into a new form with memories of a past life. Consider how your character interacts with others who may not understand or trust their artificial nature. Use your character's background and memories to shape their personality and motivations, whether they seek to rediscover their lost humanity or embrace their new existence as a construct.
