Backgrounds aren’t associated with a specific Class or Kin. Utilize them to support your character’s backstory or bolster your skills. Most Backgrounds are either informative or role-played. Each character starts with two Backgrounds. These backgrounds can be in any subject area, topic, skill, profession, or market, and so on. The more specific a background is, the more detailed the information your character will have access to within it. (e.g. if you choose a generic background like "geography", you'll know about general places. If you choose a specific region or city, like "Wilshire", you'll know about store locations, districts, and local politics, etc.)
