So I think you should be safe to customize them without too much worry. If you are really worried about balance then just be sure to keep them in the spirit of the current backgrounds. They mostly deal with contacts or knowledge, not special combat abilities.I'm curious why you thought the characters needed another feat or were lacking at low levels. Was it that they didn't have enough to do? Didn't feel unique? Felt underpowered? I found that at second level the characters I've seen from my players so far had plenty of options to make themselves unique, and had plenty of choices for what to do. Now admittedly its not the power overload of 4th edition, but that is not what this edition was intended to be.- Wraith</blockquote>
