Enclave Dweller
Beneath Ervenrun there are endless underground tunnels,
some of them are part of the city, as if it were a neighborhood
of outcasts and lowlifes. Most of the people living in the
Enclave are Anireth, but also other people, some of dubious
morality and usefulness, live there. In this deep place discouragement
and despair lurk for those people who ultimately
take their first steps towards an adventure or revenge. Such a
life can shape evil individuals, but also nocturnal adventurers
who know how to deal with darkness and the sinister echoes
in front of which many would flee.
This Past can also adapt to those who grew up in the deep
neighborhoods of the Northern Lookout, where ethnicities
more accustomed to life underground dwell. Life is less bitter
there than for the Enclave's outcasts, but they are accustomed
to the cramped tunnels of these underground encampments and
the shadows moving in the silent forgotten ravines all the same.

Features
Feature: Echoes of the Depths
The hearing of those who lived in the Enclave is accustomed
to the acoustic sounds and vibrations that are heard underground.
When in a closed place, mainly surrounded by rock
and stone, they can accurately pinpoint the distance and direction from which a sound comes. In addition, if they are in
such a place, they cannot be surprised by corporeal creatures.
Suggested Characteristics
Those who grew up in a gloomy place like the Enclave are
very empathetic towards those who, like them, grew up in
situations of poverty, illness, or rejection by the community.
They are also skilled explorers, prudent but tenacious adventurers
and know how to settle well in underground tunnels,
to which they have always been accustomed. They sometimes
show naive amazement when they are outdoors and can admire
the sky and stars and present themselves as promising
members of those parties who need guides in the dungeons,
sentries, or vanguards with sharp senses.
