Suggested Characteristics[edit]
d8 | Personality Trait |
---|---|
1 | I send off those whom I even disagree with or see as enemies, as all of us are bound by the fear of death. Though rarely I may judge someone extremally sinister as undeserving of one. |
2 | I only send off those whom I feel connected to, and will not send of any enemies or outsiders. |
3 | I have grown numb to the deaths around me, and I feel myself loosing connection with life itself. |
4 | I seek to bring peace to those who knew no peace, I often look for areas of recent battles so I can send off the fallen soldiers. |
5 | I became an offseer to understand death better. To know why people seem so calm in their final moments, and to understand what they see. |
6 | I seek to perform for large ceremonies, carrying the joy of the people through my music. |
