Persona (1D8)

You have developed a persona. You use it to gather information and can slip in and out of it like a second skin. You have advantage on Performance checks to maintain your persona and gain one proficiency associated with your persona. 1- “The Prince” You hold yourself with dignity and grace to a point that people wonder if you really are royalty (History). 2- “The Drunkard” No one cares if that filthy drunk over there is listening and that is exactly how you want it to be (Stealth). 3- “The Troubador” Laugh loud, dress loud. You are commonly a distraction for other Harpers when they need to operate in daylight (One musical instrument). 4- “The Dandy” Empty headed but nice to look at in a sense. You are so eccentric that many will talk to you that wouldn’t if you were serious (Arcana). 5- “The Obvious Spy” Dark and edgy, you are so obviously a bad person that people will avoid you and go right where you want them to go and seek out a place away from you (Perception). 6- “The Dark One” You are imposing and terrifying. Perhaps if someone doesn’t cooperate with you, you may take a finger or maybe their whole family to settle the matter (Intimidation). 7- “The Hero” You are so statuesque and perfect that even the city guard might ask for your help to face a monster or tough bandit (Light armor, you gain fancy Leather armor). 8- “The Madman” Blithering nonsense about “apocalypse that” and “conspiracy this,” you can cause a commotion on demand and easily escape jail time (Deception or Religion).
