Limit Break Dancing (He/They)
Eh, I'm sure I could figure out a way to get a "shelter of the faithful" to work in Ravenloft. (Maybe the party discovers an underground cult of Pelor worshippers in Barovia or something, and they meet in Farmer Eristov's barn. They help the party out by giving them a safe place to hide, and the farmer's wife is skilled with home remedies? Or something? I've had to make far more contrived and convoluted adjustments to a campaign setting before.)But if you're like the group I'm playing in, we're playing Curse of Strahd. We're stuck in Ravenloft so there's really no way for the DM to implement most of the features even if we wanted to. In almost every case I've seen, backgrounds just become a way to get a couple extra proficiencies.
My point is, the DM ultimately decides what matters, what gets used, and how much. That's all.
