Suggested Characteristics
You've  lived  a  different  life  than  those  less  famous  and   5   I  put  down  others  to  boost  my  own  confidence.  
probably  don't  know  yourself  as  well  as  you  should.  Since   6   If  something  is  trendy  or  fashionable  I  will  avoid  it  at  all  costs.  
birth  you've  been  told  you  are  special  and  destined  for    
greatness,  which  is  an  idea  you  may  be  eager  to  prove  or    
disprove.  You're  used  to  being  under  pressure  and  to  folks    
talking  about  you  both  to  your  face  and  behind  your  back,    
since  that  has  been  your  whole  life.  As  you  start  your    
adventuring  career  you  have  a  choice  to  make.  Most  people    
of  a  heroic  lineage  either  embrace  the  family  name  or  try  to    
get  out  there  and  make  their  own  name  mean  something    
beyond  the  family  title.  The  result,  however,  is  the  same  -­‐  a    
determined  hero  trying  to  show  the  world  they  are    
something  more  just  a  lucky  baby  birthed  to  the  right    
parents  at  the  right  time.    
 
d8   Personality  Traits    
1   I  am  polite  and  humble  to  all  who  fawn  over  me.    
 
I'm  sure  you've  heard  of  the  great  heroes  of  my  family,  but  let  me  tell  you  
 
2   anyway.  
 
3   I  tend  to  be  pretty  quiet  in  public  and  don't  enjoy  being  noticed.    
4   I  boast  often  about  how  I  will  put  the  deeds  of  my  ancestors  to  shame.    
 
5   I  am  attracted  to  people  who  don't  fawn  over  me  right  away.    
I  often  find  reasons  to  excuse  myself  from  large  groups  of  people  who  love    
6   me  for  my  name.    
 
7   I  am  able  to  fake  smile  for  anyone,  even  if  I  hate  that  person.  
 
8   I  am  always  asking  for  people  to  give  me  free  stuff  because  I  can.
