Tainted Blood: 5e Sorcerous Origin

Your blood is tainted. Stained by nightmares beyond that which any creature should have been able to survive, you are a miracle to some and a curse to others. That corruption has awakened a dark, opportunistic power that not many may understand, but most could learn to fear if you were to abuse it.

You have a strange insight into the minds and nightmares of others, and can use their distress to your advantage. Will you give in to your own corruption? Will your let your inner pain feed on the torment of others, or will you use that fire to fuel your drive for vengeance on those who have wronged you?
