Dusk

Changeling / Ranger/Warlock

Submitted character story

You are the hero who stumbles into power, who took Old Yost's cart and investigated shadows until a book chose you back. The blackout and the marked arms were the price for gifts you never asked for. Now you hunt with two blades and a patron's whisper, shapeshifting between what you were and what the pact demands. Your table will remember the ranger who bargained without meaning to, and survived the consequences.

Defining moment: I worked a job with some members of the local thieves' guild. Seemed simple enough. Go in, secure the target, get out before getting noticed.
But there was this book, just... laying on a desk in the study. Something about it called out to me. So I pocketed it. 
When I brought it  home, I noticed the book was bound with some sort of strange leather I've never seen before. It was dark, nondescript. I opened the book, and the pages were filled with strange inscriptions, weird diagrams that seemed like nonsense.

....And then I blacked out. I was out for a few days. Woke up with the worst headache, my arms looking like I was afflicted with some sort of disease... and I have powers I never could have imagined, now.
