+====== Notes ======
+Rebalancing backgrounds in my Legacy RPG.  Every background gets the following for free:
+  * 10 points of stamina;
+  * 2d4 recovery dice;
+  * 2 training ranks in defences (Fortitude, Reflex, Will);
+  * 100 silver coins;
+  * 20 "customization points" (which must all be spent at design time).
+Customization points may be spent as follows:
+  * 1 point for +2.5 stamina (rounded to convenient values);
+  * 2 points to increase die size of all recovery dice;
+  * 3 points to add an additional recovery die;
+  * 2 points for +1 training rank in defences;
+  * 1 point for a training rank in skills, but -1 point if two or more skills are assigned, rather than chosen;
+  * 3 points for an assigned trait;
+  * 4 points for a trait chosen from a list;
+  * 1 point for +25 silver coins.
+Images are 720x960\\
