Backgrounds represent the advantages characters can receive in game for relationships, circumstances, and opportunities they possess such as material possessions, social networks, etc. Some backgrounds will require templates be fleshed out, or that further explanations be added in the form of notes. Please check each background to check for any additional steps or house rules that may apply.

Backgrounds represent the advantages characters can receive in game for relationships, circumstances, and opportunities they possess such as material possessions, social networks, etc. Some backgrounds will require templates be fleshed out, or that further explanations be added in the form of notes. Please check each background to check for any additional steps or house rules that may apply.

In some cases with certain backgrounds, characters may “pool” them among groups such as a pack or a coterie. For more information see See “Pooling Backgrounds” below.
