Custom Background Traits - Multiple Feats, Skill bonuses/penalties,

[DM_Troy]

Hey All,

So I'm trying to make a 2da with custom backgrounds in place of the regular backgrounds in backgrounds.2da.

I've looked for tutorials and haven't seen any. When looking at the file (available here: ), how do I add multiple feats to a background trait (so that the pc who selects it gets multiple feats added to his pc)? Can I add additional starting xp [i.e. can I give pc's who select some background checks a higher starting level? or should I do this through a script upon the pc upon creation and entrance into the module?]

I am essentially doing a 'lineage' system whereby pc's get certain bonuses/penalties for whichever background they choose, these backgrounds themselves being limited by what race or class they chose.

Am I shoehorning too much here? Should I try doing these as selectable subraces instead? Should I do it all via a conversation script upon entering the module?

If I'm fine doing the backgrounds.2da approach, how do I add more than 1 feat for a given background?
