krrystal: Let me know what the base background is and what you want to swap out. It should be fine. I'm just having trouble finding a combination that fits both the flavor and mechanical direction of the character. The Musical Prodigy was my first choice, as it fits the musical culture I imagine tree frog people would have. The only problem is the skill feat is not useful for my build. Acrobatic Performer would be much better, as I will be leaning all in on that skill. Almost no background gives a skill feat without the matching skill proficiency, but I would be taking Acrobatics as one of my class skill choices. Proposed alterations to Musical Prodigy background:
Do we have to take the backgrounds as is, or can we exchange certain applicable parts, like the given lore?
Busy at work, so will probably not be able to get back at this before Thursday. Take all the time you need, Friend.
Absolute clutch passing the Acrobatics check in my gameplay post. I had already written the flavor, when I remembered I had to actually roll it... with only a +1. Was almost a heartbreaking moment.
Racing through the jungle has always been exciting, one of the few activities Krrys'tall will roll out of their hammock for. They preferred doing it for fun, not for work. All the same, every tripkee had to help in the village. Krrys'tall's unparalleled agility and speed allowed them some privileges, so long as they used them for the good of the village. So with a lazy moan, Krrys'tall reluctantly accepted the job given to them. After a lazy trudge to the edge of the village, Krrys'tall took a moment to stretch and enjoy the midday jungle humidity. Finishing the final stretch, they took a breath and bounded into the trees.
Reaching the canopy was no easy task, but Krrys'tall was a master of the rainforest landscape. A quick climb to better vantage, a leap across a gap, even a short freefall to catch an errant branch. Krrys'tall was in the jungle and of the jungle, a spirit free as the drops of delicious water falling off the massive leaves all around. The joy of traversing the jungle clouded Krrys'tall's mind, making them forget the dangers of seeding season... Seed attack! against your AC: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 2 = 11 Versus Krrys'tall's AC of 10 + 2 Proficiency + 1 Dexterity = 13 But when you are in the jungle and of the jungle, the Jungle Provides. Krrys'tall bounds off the branch they were standing on just before the massive seed smashes the branch to splinters. They make a shrill chirp signaling falling doom to any people or animals below and continue on their way. No use waiting around. If the giant seed hit anyone that far down... then Krrys'tall can't help them anyways, and cleanup is the fungi's job. Krrys'tall hears their destination before they see it, as the croaks of a tripkee celebration dance through the towering trees. With a short freefall into a massive leaf, Krrys'tall slides the rest of the way down. They approach a large tripkee, clearly of the bullfrog lineage, and recite the message, a song penned for the newly hatched tadpoles of this village.
Thanks. It's not you or the process that's overwhelming, it's being a few days behind and then having to parse through all the posts to know what I should do next. Mostly my issue.

Just click "My Account," and you'll be taken to a page where you need to confirm your username and password before being taken to your My Account page. Thank you for the help! Seems like there weren't many good options for frog people avatars, though. Haha. Oh and go ahead with choosing your ancestry options so we're ready for Stage 3! I decided to let the early life failures add another splash of color to the idea I already had for the character. Krrys'tall is very good melding into groups due to a desire to blend in. They will adhere to a group's style and stance, even going as far as to change gender aesthetic.Even though they are mostly easy-going, they have are lazy to the core. They even get a bit bratty when presented with a task they feel is "extra work." I find the idea of them becoming a monk, a paragon of physical perfection, to avoid carrying "heavy" weapons and armor or learning "complicated" magic hilarious. Ancestry: Tripkee
