Talk:Writer (5e Background)

I thought the Sage Background covers the writer background.--209.97.85.48 18:51, 11 May 2016 (MDT)

Sage Background is more a person who studies books and tomes, and knows where to find information, the writer background is more a person who is writing history or adding to the culture of the world. The Sage background is more for an academic characters and classes like the wizard or a knowledge cleric, writer background can be played academically but it can all so be played creatively like for a Bard or maybe a Warlock. I made the writer background to be an alternative background to the entertainer background as not all bards are showmen, some are word-smiths and story-tellers--DemonHelpLine (talk) 05:12, 12 May 2016 (MDT)

Could this be used to do a Jessica Fletcher parody? --Redrum 18:21, 14 December 2016 (MST)

Sure, she is a writer.

How about changing the name of this background to Pagemaster?--Redrum 18:06, 25 January 2017 (MST)

What, you mean like that terrible half-animated movie from the 90's? --Kydo (talk) 18:37, 25 January 2017 (MST)

I never watched that movie. --Redrum 13:55, 28 January 2017 (MST)
