Your Past

Why did you take the Oath?
You were in a dark place and decided that your life needed a little direction. You're still not so sure it was the right choice. Take an Oilskin Coat and Mapping Paper.

What do you carry as proof of your Oath?
Impressive Pin: A metal badge of honor from the Guard. It can open doors but leaves a trail. Petty.
