Blasted Brain

Sometimes an adventurer witnesses a scene so monstrously horrible that his mind, in order not to snap like a twig, blocks out the memory of it completely. Such a drastic action has costly consequences, as the person suddenly finds himself unable to recall any of his memories, including his past or who he is.

Someone suffering from a Blasted Brain undergoes a total memory loss. He can’t recall his name, past history or spells. Skills and talents are not lost, but the individual doesn’t realize he has them until reminded by another.

Finally, should a Blasted Brain encounter something or someone that specifically relates to the traumatic moment that triggered his condition, he must use his willpower to prevent going further insane, and also will need to use his intelligence to remember the details surrounding that moment.

The setbacks of suffering from a Blasted Brain are obvious. But another danger to these individuals is the followers of Tzeentch, who believe that the Blasted Brain is a gift from their hideous God and seek these people out for sinister study.
