Talents and Special Powers
Adept Linguist: You can communicate with humanoids who don’t speak any language you know. You must observe the humanoids interacting with one another for at least 1 day, after which you learn a handful of important words, expressions, and gestures—enough to communicate on a rudimentary level.
Stonecunning: Whenever you make an Intelligence (History) check related to the origin of stonework, you are considered proficient in the History skill and add double your proficiency bonus to the check.
Blessing of the Trickster: You can use your action to touch a willing creature other than yourself to give it advantage on Dexterity (Stealth) checks. This blessing lasts for 1 hour or until you use this feature again.
Channel Divinity (1/long rest)
Turn Undead: As an action, you present your holy symbol and speak a prayer censuring the undead. Each undead that can see or hear you within 30 feet of you must make a Wisdom saving throw. If the creature fails its saving throw, it is turned for 1 minute or until it takes any damage. A turned creature must spend its turns trying to move as far away from you as it can, and it can’t willingly move to a space within 30 feet of you. It also can’t take reactions. For its action, it can use only the Dash action or try to escape from an effect that prevents it from moving. If there’s nowhere to move, the creature can use the Dodge action.
Invoke Duplicity: As an action, you create a perfect illusion of yourself that lasts for 1 minute, or until you lose your concentration (as if you were concentrating on a spell). The illusion appears in an unoccupied space that you can see within 30 feet of you. As a bonus action on your turn, you can move the illusion up to 30 feet to a space you can see, but it must remain within 120 feet of you. For the duration, you can cast spells as though you were in the illusion’s space, but you must use your own senses. Additionally, when both you and your illusion are within 5 feet of a creature that can see the illusion, you have advantage on attack rolls against that creature, given how distracting the illusion is to the target.

Zoltan was crippled at a young age. He was exploring the pipe systems of the city, which were under repair, when water was released at high pressure, throwing him mightily against a filtering grid, crushing his spine and nearly drowning him.
Bedridden, he developed a taste for stories of strange people and cultures in stranger lands, and a talent for tinkering small metal toys for his friends.
At the end of his boyhood, Marthammor Duin appeared to him in a dream and gave him back his legs in exchange for leaving his city to explore the Underdark, never ever returning to familiar lands. Zoltan accepted and, upon awakening, got up from his bed, embraced his crying family, and never returned, joining Mathammor Duin's volamtar.
