Your character's background is what truly makes them stand out from the rest. Your character's background is basically how they became an adventurer and what they were before. This may include their origins, their past vocations,relationships with other characters etc. This part of character creation is often overlooked which in my opininion is wrong. So pay extra attention to your character's background because that is what makes them special.
You can either create your very own background or use the one presented on this website.
