The Gift

All people are not born equal. That is true for station, opperunity, and physical, as well as mental, capabilitiy. However, there is a subset of people who are born with something known as The Gift. What this truly means in world is a hard to say, and even creatures like The Divine Sovereigns or The Renounced are not sure truly what The Gift entails. What is clear though is that some mortals are born almost beyond their mortal shackles. They learn quicker, even if they are not more intellegent, they heal far quicker, and they seem almost guided by the hand of fate itself.   Out of the game The Gift is a tool meant to represent people who have the ability to actually gain levels at a significant pace. Most people could stumble onto a possessed item, but perhaps most would simply die under the weight of the possession, meanwhile, a person with The Gift is seen as a proper host for the possessed. At the same time a person without The Gift could spend their whole life studying magic, and only become a fifth level wizard, versus the wizard in a party who went on an adventure and came back a year later as a lvl 20th wizard.   Without The Gift figures are unlikely to go that far, but with it, they can become great heroes, or villains.
