Inheritor

Inheritors are individuals who have come into possession of a significant legacy that shapes their destiny. This inheritance could be a piece of land, a title, a magical artifact, or a sacred duty. It often comes with great responsibility and the potential for adventure, as the Inheritor must navigate the challenges and expectations that accompany their newfound status. Their roles and activities include: Bearers of Ancestral Legacy: Inheritors are often connected to an ancient lineage or family legacy. They might inherit an estate, a noble title, or a family relic with historical significance. This legacy can bestow them with status and influence but also bind them to the traditions and duties of their lineage.
Custodians of Powerful Artifacts: Some Inheritors come into possession of powerful magical items, artifacts, or weapons that have been passed down through generations. These items might be the key to their family's power or have a destiny tied to them. The Inheritor may be tasked with protecting, using, or unlocking the true potential of these artifacts.
Guardians of Sacred Duties: Inheritors may be entrusted with a sacred duty or mission, such as guarding a secret, protecting a holy site, or fulfilling a prophecy. This responsibility often requires them to live up to the ideals of their forebears and to undertake a quest or journey to fulfill their inherited role.
Navigating Expectations and Obligations: With inheritance comes a set of expectations and obligations. Inheritors must often deal with the pressures of their family's reputation, the politics of their position, or the expectations of those who look to them for leadership. They might have to prove themselves worthy of their inheritance or overcome rivals who challenge their claim.
Unraveling Mysteries and Secrets: Inheritors might find that their legacy is shrouded in mystery. They may need to uncover the secrets of their ancestry, the true history of their inheritance, or the hidden powers of the items they now possess. This journey of discovery can lead them to forgotten places, ancient tomes, and long-lost relatives.
Leaders and Rulers: Some Inheritors gain control of lands, estates, or even entire regions. They might have to govern their holdings, defend their people, or engage in the politics of their realm. This role can involve managing resources, building alliances, and protecting their territory from threats.
Adventurers by Necessity: In some cases, the inheritance itself may place the Inheritor in immediate danger or adventure. They might have to flee from those who covet their inheritance, embark on a quest to prove their rightful claim, or seek allies to help them uphold their legacy against dark forces.
Seekers of Redemption or Restoration: An Inheritor might inherit a legacy that has fallen into disrepute or ruin. They may be driven by a desire to restore their family's honor, reclaim lost lands, or redeem the legacy that was marred by the actions of their ancestors.
Champions of Tradition and Progress: Inheritors often find themselves at the crossroads between upholding ancient traditions and embracing change. They may have to decide whether to preserve their heritage as it is or to use their newfound power to bring about reform and progress.

Inheritance

Choose or randomly determine your inheritance from among the possibilities in the table below. Work with your Dungeon Master to come up with details: Why is your inheritance so important, and what is its full story? You might prefer for the DM to invent these details as part of the game, allowing you to learn more about your inheritance as your character does. The Dungeon Master is free to use your inheritance as a story hook, sending you on quests to learn more about its history or true nature, or confronting you with foes who want to claim it for themselves or prevent you from learning what you seek. The DM also determines the properties of your inheritance and how they figure into the item's history and importance. For instance, the object might be a minor magic item, or one that begins with a modest ability and increases in potency with the passage of time. Or, the true nature of your inheritance might not be apparent at first and is revealed only when certain conditions are met. When you begin your adventuring career, you can decide whether to tell your companions about your inheritance right away. Rather than attracting attention to yourself, you might want to keep your inheritance a secret until you learn more about what it means to you and what it can do for you.
