Spy

At some point or another you secretly gathered information on a group of people or maybe one person. Maybe you were hired by a rival or political enemy, maybe you were searching for military information to help the opposing army, maybe you were trying to fulfill you own agenda, but regardless you are good at finding things and hiding your true self. You are used to living on the edge of danger, and doubly used to doubting people's intentions. Who did you spy for, yourself or some benefactor? Who or what did you spy on? What secrets did you uncover? Why did you stop, or did you?

Feature: Echo of the Great Game[edit]

Years of stealth and trickery have taught you how to not draw attention to yourself. The way you walk, talk and move are deliberately forgettable, and utterly unextraordinary. No one can remember your face nor any features about you, unless they actively make an effort to do so.
