Talk:Military Asset (5e Background)

Could this background use weapon proficiencies? --Redrum 13:52, 21 January 2017 (MST)

I chose not to include weapon proficiencies so as not to limit the play of an asset. They are observant and trained, but have no set loadouts. I hope this answers your question Redrum --Pax White 23:45, 28 February 2017 (MST)

I recommend changing "Language of your military's nation" to something else. You will almost certainly have your own nation's language already. Maybe vehicles (water) or thieves' tools. Also, I think the "briefing" should be described in the form of a dossier received at a dead-drop (rather than a face-to-face briefing), and have a little list of random "missions" that act as secret side-quests. Otherwise it won't always mesh with the party's location or overall quest. Marasmusine (talk) 08:07, 11 March 2017 (UTC)

I suppose the language statement makes sense. Also, the briefing can be rewritten to state that a briefing (or dossier) arrives via a letter at the starting/first city/town. The briefing is only meant to include a small amount of lore, some locations and the like. Including additional information can be up to the DM's discretion, but I am currently play-testing it. Lore can include locations which can become side-quests. Your suggestions are noted and some will be incorporated. --Pax White (talk) 23:32, 14 March 2017 (MST)
