From D&D Wiki
Naga's Chosen[edit]
![]() |
---|
Lucina, the original child of fate. |
You are a child of fate, chosen by the Dragon Goddess Naga. In your timeline, the God of Destruction Grima tore the land asunder with his evil might, and Naga has sent you to this world so that you wouldn't have to die at his hand. Your father and mother died in battle against Grima, fighting alongside Lord Chrom of Ylisse, and now it is up to you to change your fate for the better. Who were your Parents? Are you the child of the Dark Mage: Tharja? Or the offspring of Princess Lissa? Or perhaps the son or daughter of Grima's Vessel: Robin?
Skill Proficiencies: Athletics and History
Tool Proficiencies: Thieves' Tools, Herbalism Kit, or one musical instrument of your choice.
Languages: One of your choice.
Equipment: A token of one (or both) of your parents, your mother's wedding ring, a set of common clothes, and a purse containing 15 gp.
Feature: Make your own Fate![edit]
As a child of fate, you have a certain instinct for cause and effect. While decisions are being made, you can tell, in a general sense, what each option might lead to. Sometimes, this is more specific, or more helpful, than others. The more knowledge you have, the better predictions you can make. It's not perfect, either. Wrong information or preconceived biases can skew your predictions in less realistic ways. Work with your DM to sort out what fate can tell you, and use that insight to help rewrite destiny.
