Backgrounds here are based on the Narratives in Primeval Thule, so they will gain abilities as a character levels. I've made the decision to treat them as backgrounds because they fill a similar niche as 5E's backgrounds, but allow abilities to be gained as you level to reflect the high action and deep peril of the setting.
Also, some of the abilities require the expenditure of a resource, for this reason and for how dangerous the setting is, each character gains the Lucky Feat for free and may take the Lucky Feat one additional time.
