Plan B (5e Background)

Work In Progress

This content deviates from 5e standards. Its use could dramatically alter campaigns, take extreme care.

Caution - Here there be monsters! This content intends to provide a different experience, or goes beyond the scope of the anticipated subjects and situations, than the 5e rules were intended to handle. Some portions of the content below may not be what you expect from traditional game content. When implementing this content, DMs and Players should read over all the information carefully, and consider the following specific notes of interest:

This is not a very generalized background and deviates heavily from the design philosophy of official options. This background makes the character very centerpiece in the world, thus granting them a lot of influence from the get-go, along with certain already-designated characteristics, duties, and habits.
