Primeval Thule: Jungle Trader for D&D 5th Edition

Backgrounds here are bases on the Narratives in Primeval Thule, so they will gain abilities as a character levels.  They are only intended for use in the Primeval Thule setting and are not designed to be mixed with standard Backgrounds.

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.


Jungle Trader 


Area of Proficiency (1st level): You are proficient in Deception, Insight, and Persuasion.

Langauges (1st level): Three of your choice.

Estimate Value  (Level 1):  You can spend a Luck point to cast identify on an item with no component cost.

Profit Margin(6th level): Whenever you sell an item for gold, you obtain 10% more than the standard price
Optionally this is a feat and can only be taken if you have this background and are at least 4th level, additionally gain +1 to Wisdom or Charisma.

Trusty Steed (10th level): As a side benefit to a deal or as the winnings in a wager, you obtain a well trained, loyal exotic steed—anything from a warhorse to a rideable dinosaur. Work with your GM to determine exactly what mount you get. It’s primarily a cool means of transport, not a combatant in fights, though it should be tough enough to survive the ordinary travails of the adventurer’s life. As long as you don’t abuse the mount, it will serve you faithfully and well. You can replace a fallen steed when you reach a new level.
Optionally this is a feat and can only be taken if you have this background and are at least 8th level, additionally gain +1 Wisdom.
