Favorite Traits / Backgrounds?


Pathfinder Adventure Path General Discussion


One of the things I love the most is pre-written backstories that hook a player character into the world and narrative; Player’s Guides are consistently some of my favorite things to read! I’d really like to hear which ones stand out to folks, from across the long span of APs?


I think the ones in the Agents of Edgewatch Player's Guide are especially great because some of them break the background mold to give you something extra in addition to cementing you into absalom and the city guard. If I ever GM edgewatch I'll likely say my players have to pick backgrounds from the AoE player's guide just because of how thematically good I think they are.

I also like that Fall of Plaguestone has prewritten sidequests in its adventure toolbox that match each of its presented specific backgrounds. I dont think any other adventure or AP has done this but I really liked it.
