I am creating a character for a PbP and the DM says to use Background Skills, which I have not used in the past.
Situation: Ranger, Favored Enemy (Gnoll), Human, 10 Int so no extra skills.
With his background he needs four Background Skills, 1-Linguistics(gnoll), 1-Profession(soldier), Max-Handle Animal and Max-Knowledge (geography).
With only two background skills am I limited to having to take Linguistics and Profession at 1st level Ranger, then Handle Animal and Knowledge (geography) at 2nd (and beyond) level Ranger, or can I use two of my "regular" skill points, including the Favored Class Bonus skill point and pick up all four at 1st level Ranger?
I have read the PRD rules section on Background Skills and it does not specify one way or the other.
