Benefit:  This Trait is considered to be always in effect and cannot be deactivated. The Ancestral Heritage Trait represents your character's family background and makes a very particular statement about their deeds and accomplishments. With this Trait, yor character comes from a long line of powerful individuals, and some of that great potential has been passed down to your character. As a result of this Trait, your character is allowed to choose Ancestral Relic item at character creation. This item is an extraordinarily unique relic and should be treated as valuable by your character.

An Ancestral Relic may be a weapon, armor, jewelry, or article of clothing. These items are Spirit Locked and Attuned to a specific character, but begin play as relatively mundane items. As time progresses, through research and study, the various different powers of an Ancestral Relic may be uncovered, and then activated through special deeds. The item will evolve in power, eventually reaching its fullest potential. In addition, your character may gain a number of role-playing benefits which will represent her unique history.
