Best Background

[falkirian]

Hi ya'll,

I deleted my old saves by accident so im starting again, but before chosing a background i want to know which one offers the most responses/interactions in general, i already went barbarian so i wanna change a little.

minstrel makes you succeed on canDance checks, so it's my go-to

canDance? no idea whats that, but ima go minstrel for the lulz then, thanks

what it says on the tin: you can dance

 

[falkirian]

I'd try Thief or Mage next; they usually get a decent number of extra dialogue and skill checks. Hope the new run treats you better than the lost saves did!

I mean the backgrounds like minstrel, barbarian or noble scion

Soldier is pretty nice. It's nothing game-changing, but a few characters acknowledge you for it and ask you about it. You also get special dialogue options when training Kinu and Valencia to fight.

 

[PalletTown]

Noble Scion occasionally mentions your education and your noble background. Basically, you understand how the nobility work.

Scholar, be a nerd, know stuff other people might not be aware(despite this we don't know what frickin sodium is, how?!).

So much knowledge lost in the aftermath of the Godswar...

Based on the times when the Scholar background gives you some insight on a topic and the times when it notably doesn't, it seems that the Champion's formal education mostly focused on history, politics, and basic magical theory.

Narvera gatekeeping knowledge doesn’t help ether
