Abstract
-
Some backgrounds, such as Urban Grace Hunter, are best for high -level D&D players due to unique skills and contacts.
-
Specific modules can be molded for any campaign with DM approval, such as smugglers and shipwright.
-
Choose a background like Plan Planner Philosopher or Cluster Scholar for individual abilities and rollplay opportunities.
When the role is created in the Dhangan and the Dragon, the background choice for his character is often ignored. Of course, you choose this background at the first level, which means, sometimes, it is difficult to tell how much the background will work at a higher level. In addition, the backgrounds are never going to completely break the construction of your character.

The past of Salmarish |
---|---|
Key feature |
Down |
Many excellent backgrounds are hidden, sticking to specific adventure modules, the main reason is that they are in accordance with this adventure. However, with the right adaptation, many of these backgrounds can be brought to another campaign. The smuggler’s background from the ghosts of Salmarish is such a background.
Like the Urban Grace Hunter Background, the low feature of the smuggler allows you to contact the smugglers’ network that can help you get out of the situation. This feature is certainly at the discretion of your DM, but even without this feature, skills with water vehicles are very helpful if you are playing in aquatic environment.

Key feature |
The right of good fortune |
The background takes 2024 player’s handbook after many other backgrounds, and also borrows from other achievements.

Planner Philosopher

Plankap: adventures in multi -virus |
---|---|
Key feature |
Scan the feat of outdoor aircraft |
Talking technically, this feat should be allocated only for a plankip -based campaign as it has to do a lot with an extraordinary planner adventure. However, with some occasions, you can send it to other campaigns. Or, you can also talk about working with your DM as to why your character has left Sigel and enrolled in a material plane.
In any way, when you take this background, you get resistance to any specific type of damage based on the outdoor aircraft association, as well as a free container. In addition, you have an additional skill skills on which smuggled faction you belong to, as well as the key to the portal. If you are playing in Sigel or playing in a campaign that is likely to jump on the plane, this is a great background.

Shipwright

---|---|
Key feature |
I will patch it |
Like the smuggler’s background, the shipwright background from the ghosts of Salmarish certainly works best in the module. But if you are playing in a campaign where water vehicles are necessary, you should talk to your DM about porting it on a non -slotted adventure.
The key feature of this background is called the ‘I Patch’, in which players can produce water vehicles more easily than others, provided they have access to the appropriate content. In this way, you can really physically equal HP equal to five times the equivalent of a modification of your skills in your water pot. However, you can only do this once unless the vessel is pulled on the coast.

Investigator
Source |
Van Richton’s leader for Raven Laft |
---|---|
Key feature |
Official inquiry |
Although this background comes from the guide for Wan Richton’s Raven Laft Module, it is one of the most easily composed background on the list. The basic thing behind this background is that at a young age you were impressed with a mysterious, soluble issue, which causes you to try to open the mystery wherever you go.
In addition to specializing with both disguised kits and thieves, you are also known as the official inquiry. With this feature, you are more likely to have access to someone or place you are investigating. Once again, this feature is used at the discretion of your DM, but more often, you will probably be able to go to places that other roles cannot.

Archaeologist

The tomb of annihilation |
---|---|
Key feature |
Emergency |
This next background comes from the tomb of the annihilation module, but can be easily adapted to other campaigns. This is the best suitable for a background exploration -based campaign or for the tables that make many dungeons crawl. The reason for this is, in addition to your skills with the cartographer’s tools, you also find a feature known as historical knowledge.
This feature allows you to determine the purpose and origin of any ruin or basement in which you enter, as well as who has built it. You can even easily assess the value of the treasury, which means that if your party is often returning its way through a different basement, you will be able to finally be able to be part of their formation.

Divine Contact |
This background, which comes from Spell Jamer, is much more about the rollplay opportunities for expert players that are about its correction, but it is still able to see. With this background, you specialize with insights and religion, as well as known as longevity, which means, because you have spent time in your sea, you are really 20D6 years older.

Key feature |
Access to the library |

With this background, you have access to the feature known as the library access, which allows you to free and easy access to most libraries in your campaign setting. You also get a preferred treatment, meaning that you can stop a lot of extra red tapes that have to deal with other roles.
