Yeah, Bobby of all people has joint highest charisma. Maybe he's part Chain Pact warlock with a unicorn familiar.

True but he rarely exerted control. He seemed to practice democracy as opposed to 'lead' and inspire.

A note: Each PC has a one-page character sheet accompanied by several pages containing the full descriptions of their traits, class features, feats, and magic items.

With respect to traits, class features, and feats that grant additional choices (whether it's a skill, an ASI, or whatever), they all indicate that the choice is included on the character sheet, but they don't all specify what the actual choice is. For instance, Diana's Weapon Master feat indicates that the Quarterstaff was the choice pre-made for it, but Hank's and Niko's ASI feats don't specify which ability scores were modified by the feat. In the same vein, Presto's Skilled feat doesn't indicate which of his skill proficiencies he gained through the feat.

Just thought that might be worth mentioning in case anyone is wondering.

What? the annoying little brother Bobby and nerdy Presto have better cha than golden boy Hank?

and were Bobby and Sheila always farm kids?

I can't speak to the stats, but my guess re: the backgrounds is that those are just the ones that fit the best mechanically. I mean, these are characters who got lost in the D&D world as kids. They technically shouldn't have any job-oriented background.

Maybe in this instance, Eric's noble background is meant to portray that he comes from a wealthy family, whereas Bobby and Sheila come from a poorer family? Diana and Presto being scribes indicates they were academically inclined middle class kids maybe? Not sure what Hank's guard background could be, though.

I think in this case the Backgrounds chosen are just mechanical placeholders to get the desired Skills and Feats for the characters, with the narrative being highly customized.

Yes, exactly. I mean, neither the character sheets nor the accompanying cheat sheets even expand on the background anyway. None of them come with any kind of backstory whatsoever.
