=== Customizing Background ===

Background selections are like prestige classes: They function best when the DM interates them tightly into the campaign world. You have a lot of room to modify the background activities described in this section to suit the needs of your campaign and inject the rules with the flavor of your game world. For example, perhaps a city-state has elite flail-wielding commandos. The shock trooper activity in the military background could offer a decoration in the Recognition column, a dire flail in the Gear column, and a +1 in the Reputation column (they are elite, after all).
