## Backgrounds Brainstorming Document

### ORIGIN BACKGROUNDS

**Origin Background: Rural Upbringing:** You grew up on a backwater planet, or in a very rural part of your native land. You may have worked on a farm or hunted for a living. Generally, you spent much of your days doing manual labor or cohabitating with nature.
Personal Items: N/A. 

**Origin Background: Illestren-Born:** Growing up on the Saint-Roumain Militia's home planet of Illestren, you were immersed in the traditions of the faith from a young age. While you lacked the modern gadgets and luxuries of other colonies, you cultivated a certain level of independence and learned some practical Hunter's skills, too. Whether or not you still practice, you still carry some small vestige of the Huntsman's embers within you.
Personal Items: An emberweave, a small wooden token given to all children born on Illestren.

### RECENT HISTORY BACKGROUNDS
