At an ancient, perhaps long-forgotten point in history, you were a mighty ruler who lorded over your people, whether you were cruel or fair. Your name was known all across the land and your people prospered. But like all living things you eventually died, and were memorialised in a tomb. But now, for whatever reason you have risen again. Perhaps a necromancer rose you, or perhaps your patron god revived you for a certain purpose. But these lands are unfamiliar; the people, the environment, even the very ground beneath your feet may be different from how you remember. You had better get used to this new world quickly.

Skill Proficiencies: History, Survival

Tool Proficiencies: One type of gaming set

Languages: Two of your choice

Equipment: A set of fine clothes, an ancient signet ring of your dynasty, and a ragged purse containing 15 gp, and two trinkets.

Since you died so long ago, your way of thinking is unusual for these modern times. Perhaps you believe something long since proven wrong, like that Drow are Fiends formed from the bowels of the earth. Perhaps you don't value the same things that other people do, like believing knowledge is a useless pursuit when compared to something strange such as jousting with boulders. Or perhaps you believe something more esoteric, like that nothing truly happens in the world without spirits deciding it should happen. Let your imagination flow and think of something like that.
