[QUOTE="Yaarel, post: 9432690, member: 58172"] Both narrative and mechanics. For example, "my character grew up in" a High Elf treetown military academy. What does this character build look like? What does this culture look like within the setting? Perhaps the player and the DM agree on the following. Character: Abilities: +2 Intelligence, and +1 Strength or Dexterity (for Eldritch Knight academy) Skills: Athletics, and Arcana, Nature (alchemy), or Medicine Tool: martial weapon, typically longsword (replaces toolset), or Alchemist or Herbalist toolset Feat: cantrip, can cast [I]Mage Armor[/I] at-will (appearing as elven chain) Languages: Common, Elven, Sylvan Culture: The elven town of such-and-such, is an elegant town of treehouses across the canopy of very tall ancient trees. The town is known for its army of mages, dividing into an Eldritch Knight force and a Bladesinger Wizard force. Children growup training in wrestling, gymnastics, in addition to weapon training and spellcasting. Alchemists make explosives and weapons of mithral and other rare alloys. Etcetera. [/QUOTE]
