-====== Backgrounds ======
-[[nexusframe:intro|Return to Introduction]]
-Since **The Nexus Framework** does not have classes, it instead relies on **backgrounds** to provide initial guidance during character creation.  You will need to create backgrounds specific to your story.  There is a small stable of backgrounds given below, universal enough to import into any setting, but varied enough to demonstrate clearly how the system works.
-===== Creating Backgrounds =====
-Each background is constructed with seventeen Build Points.  This system is for use by the game designer //only//.  Players, or even Game Masters, should not use this system.
-Each of the following options lists its cost in Build Points.
-==== Skills ====
-  * **2 Points**:  Choose a specific skill.  A character that selects this background receives a +2 training bonus in that skill.
-  * **3 Points**:  Choose a specific skill.  A character that selects this background receives a +3 training bonus in that skill.
-  * **3 Points**:  A character that selects this background may choose any skill they do not currently have trained, and receives a +2 training bonus in that skill.
-==== Traits ====
-  * **4 Points**:  Choose a specific trait.  A character that selects this background receives that trait.  If the trait comes from a Specialist trait pool, the character also receives access to that pool for later General trait choices.
-  * **3 Points**:  Choose a specific trait from a pool to which the background already has access.  A character that selects this background receives that trait.
-  * **3 Points**:  Choose a specific trait from a pool to which the background does //not// have access.  A character that selects this background receives that trait, but //not// access to that trait's pools.
-  * **3 Points**:  Choose a specific Skill trait.  A character that selects this background receives that trait.
-==== Other Statistics ====
-  * **1 Point**:  The character who selects this background receives 10 Stamina.  At least one purchase of this statistic is **mandated**, so it could be said that every background receives sixteen Build Points and 10 Stamina.
-  * **1 Point**:  The character who selects this background receives 25\[Cs] in currency.
