Parent - New 5e Background

[Jimbro]

Yeah, it's totally a background, just like sailors:

"I'm a parent. I come from a long line of parents. My father was a parent, his father was a parent, all the way back to my great great grandfather, who parented here all the way from the old country. In fact, you could say that parenting is in my blood."

That statement is nothing if not factually accurate.

I'd also include intimidation as a choice if the children in question are unruly teenagers, and give advantage on the check if you use their middle name!

I thought about making the skills: Insight and Intimidation or Persuasion.

I wonder if this could work for a "Lone Wolf and Cub" type character.

It's awesome, my only quibble is the 10 gp... let's be realistic here....

Couldn't agree more with the sentiment. I think 10 sp hidden in a sock deep in the dresser would be more appropriate

I'm not sure I'd use this in D&D. On the other hand, in an Urban Arcana/d20 Modern game? Yes. All the yeeeeessss.

A variant of Beastmaster?

Yeah, I was thinking negative gold. Or in their belt pouch is a small roll of coupons.

Lol this is funny. Among the goods one, my favorite: "Whenever others tell stories about their children I must top it with one about my own." That is so annoying
