'''WHAT'S BEEN KEEPING YOU AWAKE?''' The gig economy. It's hard to make ends meet without hustling every minute. I hold down three jobs - not that my family would consider them jobs - as a fast food delivery driver, ebay seller, and freelance essay writer, and it just about keeps a roof over my head. It's worth it to be free of their expectations.
'''Description:''' A young male elf with pale skin, blonde hair, and grey eyes. When at rest he's unsettlingly still, almost like an abandoned doll.


'''WHAT JUST HAPPENED TO YOU?''' I was heading to the post office after a night up writing essays about the three stages of backward design, and epistemological analysis of the concept of foundationalism, when this idiot in a van ran a red light and came right at me. I knew right then I was dead. Next thing I know the van slams sideways into a lamppost, like it had been hit by a trunk. Driver was dead on impact.

'''WHAT'S ON THE SURFACE?''' People see a cheerful fidgetty blond guy in his early twenties, who's tall and thin in a way that looks perpetually underfed. My parents would be mortified by my ink and eyeliner and purple nails.
'''Initiative Bonus'''<br>
'''Passive Perception''' 13<br>
'''Passive Insight''' 16<br>


'''WHAT LIES BENEATH?''' People always thought I was an airhead coasting on Daddy's money. They've no fucking idea how hard it is, how tiring, to have to be on all the time - always cheerful, always smiling, always creating the best impression. I'm better than that. Smarter than that. And I'll prove it.
==Spells==


'''WHAT IS YOUR PATH?''' The path I'm supposed to follow is one paved with expectations. I'm supposed to become a doctor or a lawyer or a politician. Hook up with some perfect girl, have perfect children. Be respectable. There's more to life. I'm going to carve my own path, pave my own way, and be happy being me.
'''Spell Slots:'''<br>
Level 1: 4<br>
Level 2: 3<br>
Level 3: 3<br>


'''WHAT IS YOUR WORST NIGHTMARE?''' My father has a flock of lawyers on retainer. Sometimes I dream he sends them after me, like that Goya painting.

- You have advantage on Constitution saving throws to maintain concentration.<br>
- You can perform the somatic components of spells even when you have weapons or a shield in both hands.<br>

==Traits==
*Darkvision 60'

There was nothing noteable about Qinan's life or career as a cleric, until the day he clawed himself out of a shallow grave with no idea how he got there. Somehow his body has carried on despite his soul having departed - an abomination in the eyes of his own faith - although in most respects he passes as a living creature. Not knowing the how or why of it, he's attending the Festival of Masks in search of answers.

==Background/Bio==
Like most on the Rim, Garrett Waymire grew up with a gun in his hand. Critters were always a problem, and when it wasn't critters it was bandits, and when it wasn't bandits it was Alliance.
He wasn't good at much else, so when the recruiter came calling for the Browncoats he joined up. His parents weren't pleased - he was the best hunter in the family, with the patience for sitting around waiting and a knack for finding his targets. It wasn't enough of a reason to stay.
The army took those skills and honed them. Before long he was making a name for himself as a sniper. He found he was able to anticipate his targets, when they were approaching and where, and take them out when they were barely in range.
And then it went wrong, as these things always do. Garrett doesn't remember much of what happened, only terror and blinding pain. His spotter  Clem got him out, and later told him about a target that was barely visible, how Garrett had taken the shot then seemed to have a seizure before passing out. He woke up in the hospital, and by the time he got out the war was over and he was on the losing side.
That wasn't the only thing that changed. Garrett's a Reader, and now that his powers are growing he has no idea what to do with them.
