Fairly certain you haven't, though even if you have we can just chalk it up to nobody listening or paying attention, it's totally a thing that happens in games! |

Ditto to what the other guys said. I tend to remember minutiae like this pretty well, too, so I'm confident that it hasn't come up before. |

Everyone knows exactly who they're playing as. I mean, they made the character sheet, right? But then, the GM pulls a fast one, and tells you who you REALLY are. |

"The GM said I was a human but it turns out I wasn't. Tengu believe it?" |

please excuse how I tell the below story has I was not there and I don't know anything about the system beyond a stat called honour |

So.. this goes back to a few games back. This was more or less the prototype version of my 3.5/5/pathfinder cleric. |

Did you mean slave? Because I do remember an entertaining thread about Slavic drow... |

This is basically the theme of a character I'm playing, and really enjoying. Told my GM I wanted to go the raised from young age as an assassin. We discussed a few outlines on what I wanted. Then he just went off with it and refused to tell me anything my character wouldn't know, which was a LOT. She's just recently been learning a few things about well, the people she worked for, the opposing group she THOUGHT she worked for, and circumstances of how she came to work for the first, and later switch sides without knowing it. |

In this case, I AM the GM who revealed something to a player that they didn't know about themselves. |

I'm a DM myself, and one of the PCs I run has a few of these under his belt. To all the other players, he's a human with a high rank in the military, without much backstory worth mentioning. What they don't know is that his mother's an ancient gem dragon, his father was a powerful time-traveler, and he himself is one of the most dangerous members of a terrorist/freedom fighter movement. |

A lot of our characters' distinctive features ended up getting retconned in, or just added because of how our rolls ended up. After three increasingly bad Perception rolls (9, 4, 1) in the second session, it was decided my character was blind in one eye, due to a fight prior to the campaign. |

I actually DO play a Tengu in my Pathfinder group. Chekyl the Alchemist. Never went for the "Long-Nose Form" racial feat, though, so he's always feathery. :> |

Just adjust your aim with your inhumanly long, perfectly aligned nose. Boom, like +8 or something to ranged attacks made with a slingshot or a bow. Brilliant. |

Hmm... a half-kappa tengu ranger. Since kappa are aquatic, it would make him amphibious, capable of flight... Guys, I think I invented a duck. |

Okay, I'll admit, I'm taking a huge risk here because I cannot for the life of me remember whether or not Usopp's long nose as been mentioned already in a previous page. I could go back and check, but... >_>
