This character's backstory has mentions of dubious consent in reference to sex work in survival situations and being in an abusive and manipulative relationship.

As a changeling Vir is also able to shapeshift and take the appearance of any humanoid. This can include the appearance of your character. Yes yours.

background;
Orphaned as a baby, Vir was taken in at a brothel in the North. They were raised by everyone working there and in turn learned and helped with things like house chores, cooking, and when they were a bit older, helping to deal with particularly unseemly customers. They learned to dance from the employees who raised them as well as fight from the bouncers who helped to maintain order. Once Vir was of a legal and appropriate age to do so they started participating in sex work in order to make a living wage of their own but never could make enough to strike out and leave the North. Wistfully, they yearned to leave and see the world.

All of that changed when a man named Kaius and his company of mercenaries came to Vir's sleepy little town in the North. They came to drink and have an evening of entertainment after a victory well fought. Kaius himself requests Vir and the two spend an evening together. After Vir is done working, they go to leave, but Kaius requests that Vir shares his bed for the evening, and simply talks, which Vir agrees to. Vir notices a book on his beside, and admits that they've always wanted to be able to read, but have never been able to learn.

The two never sleep that night. They talk of all things. Kaius talks of conquest and duty. Vir talks of a longing to learn and see the world. Kaius offers to take Vir away from everything, but there is a catch. If Vir agrees, Vir will not be doing so as a free person, but as Kaius' property.

Vir agrees.
Shapechanger
As an action, you can change your appearance and your voice. You determine the specifics of the changes, including your coloration, hair length, sex, height and weight. You can make yourself appear as a member of another race, though none of your game statistics change. You can’t duplicate the appearance of a creature you’ve never seen, and you must adopt a form that has the same basic arrangement of limbs that you have. Your clothing and equipment aren’t changed by this trait.
Bardic Inspiration
As a bonus action, a creature (other than yourself) within 60 ft. that can hear you gains an inspiration die (1d8). For 10 minutes, the creature can add it to one ability check, attack roll, or saving throw. This can be added after seeing the roll, but before knowing the outcome.
Cure Wounds
A creature you touch regains a number of hit points equal to 1d8 + your spellcasting ability modifier. This spell has no effect on undead or constructs.

At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 2nd level or higher, the healing increases by 1d8 for each slot level above 1st.
