Culture

A character’s Culture Skill represents their exposure to different societies and cultural ideas. A character with this background has spent time appreciating art, language, and religion from around the world, and can easily identify faux pas and social hierarchies for groups ranging from foreign companies to insular internet forums.

• Culture 1: A basic understanding of cultural expression around the world. The character is less likely to make a faux pas in groups he has read about or spent time in.
• Culture 3: A comfortable grasp of the nuances of almost every mortal culture. The character can steer their friends away from gauche behavior even after only a short exposure to a group.
• Culture 5: A cultural prodigy with perfect insight into the artwork and mores of worldwide cultures. The character can pass himself off as a native mere moments after entering a new society.
