Military

You joined the military at an early age and moved up through the ranks. You may not be part of it anymore, but you’ve always got a bit of that military discipline to fall back on in times of crisis. There’s something about the way you move and think that gives it away to people. You’ve got hierarchy, time tables, and conflict in your blood. You might have fled the ranks long ago. Maybe the structure was too restrictive. Maybe you left dishonorably. You’re carving out a new unit now, your way. This time you’re going to do it right.

Skill Proficiencies Athletics, Intimidation
Tool Proficiencies Your choice of Flying Vehicles or Land Vehicles
Languages One of your choice
Equipment A canteen, a mess kit, a souvenir from a famous battle, a set of casual clothes, a uniform with rank insignia, and 10 credits.

Features

Authority
During your time in the military you managed to attain a pretty significant rank. You’ve got a bit of authority behind your voice and you carry yourself as someone whom everyone should be listening to. Once between each long rest, you may issue an order to a non-hostile NPC of CR equal-to or lower-than your level and they will obey it without question. Additionally, members of your current or former military organization that would be lower rank than you will still follow your orders, so long as they are not hostile to you and you succeed in a DC 10 Intimidation or Persuasion check for each order.
