Freed

You once belonged to someone else.

Whether through chains, debt, coercion, captivity, or legal ownership, your life was not your own. You were controlled, traded, commanded, or confined. At some point—through rebellion, escape, revolution, mercy, or circumstance—you gained your freedom.

Now the world is larger than it has ever been.

Some who were once enslaved burn with anger. Others carry quiet bitterness. Some feel gratitude toward those who freed them. Some believe freedom is fragile and must be defended at all costs. Others simply wish to live.

Whatever the past holds, one truth remains: you are no longer owned.

Feature: Unfettered

You have lived without freedom once. You refuse to surrender it again.

• You add your proficiency bonus to Death Saving Throws.
• When you become grappled, restrained, or charmed, you can use your reaction to immediately attempt to end the effect:

 - If the effect allows a saving throw, you may immediately repeat the saving throw.
 - If the effect can be ended with an escape check, you immediately make that escape check.
 - If the effect requires dealing damage (such as breaking free of a net), you may make an attack against the object binding you.

Additionally, while grappled or restrained, you can attempt to escape as a bonus action instead of an action. If the effect normally requires a specific condition to attempt a new saving throw (such as taking damage), that condition is considered fulfilled for this attempt.

Personality Traits

Those who were once enslaved are shaped by constraint, survival, and the moment they reclaimed agency. Some become fiercely independent. Others struggle to trust. Some are cautious, always measuring exits and risks. Others embrace freedom recklessly, determined never to be confined again. Their ideals often revolve around autonomy, justice, or security, while their bonds may tie them to fellow captives, liberators, or unfinished business from their past. Their flaws frequently arise from fear of control, suppressed anger, or difficulty accepting help.
