Construct Background House Rules

We’ll add up your “Chantry” background to create an individual accumulation of points before pooling them. Each level is added to the previous level.

So, if you have…

1 Chantry = 1 point

2 Chantry = 3 points

3 Chantry = 6 points

4 Chantry = 10 points

5 Chantry = 15 points

As a group of four technocrats, you could have 60 total points to spend on…
