Adding a new layer to Origins, again!

With this mod, you can add a background to your character. Were they a butcher? A pickpocket? A bounty hunter? It's all up to you. Each background comes with a small positive effect, small enough it won't upset the balance, even without a negative effect.

Backgrounds are their own type, so they won't be competing with your hundreds of Origins or Classes. In fact, you can have an Origin, a Class and a Background, similar to a popular TTRPG.

 

This mod can be used standalone, or with Origins: Backgrounds
