Void-touched characters grew up on a world that has become shadowed, darkened, or lost to the Void. Characters might belong to a community that is slowly coming under the Void’s influence, or one that has become wholly corrupted or conquered by the Void. Alternatively, a character could be a sole survivor, forming a “culture” of just one individual
Your home may have been attacked by the undead warriors of the Last Cathedral, infiltrated by a doom mongering apocalypse cult, or exposed to strange energies from beyond time and space when a chaos sorcerer opened a void rift. Whatever happened, you were changed forever by this traumatic experience, and you have been trying to shake off the embrace of the Void ever since.
Unfortunately, your ordeal has forged a connection to the Void that means you are unlikely to ever be completely rid of its influence, although this connection has also granted you several useful abilities that help you stay alive.
Forbidden Knowledge
You have proficiency in the Arcana or Religion skill. When you make a check to recall information about void creatures or cults, double your PB for the roll.
Mental Toughness
When you make a save to resist a dread effect, you can treat any d20 die roll of 9 or lower as though you rolled a 10. If you succumb to dread, the duration of the effect is halved.
Languages
You know Common and one additional language of your choice. Typical void-touched characters choose Dwarvish. You can also understand spoken or written Void Speech and aren’t harmed by hearing or reading it.
