Boeroer Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 It is possible. As far as I know race and class don't matter. Only your cultural background determines which "profession" you can choose. Only culture which doesn't let you pick aristocrat should be the Living Lands. Deadfire Community Patch: Nexus Mods Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JerekKruger Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 Conan type? I'm not sure of his origins in the books, but in the Arnold movie he started off as a slave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's something that may have been on YouTube or Twitch, not sure. What about "Human>Meadow Folk>Barbarian>Aedyr>Aristocrat" - still possible? There was some combination where the "Aristocrat" option was gone. Maybe it wasn't with "Human", I can't recall. Thanks for checking it out.

Tiamin Posted June 8, 2017 Author Share Posted June 8, 2017 Nevermind. I found this "Culture and Background" wiki page that gives the information on all possible combinations. I'd still like the "Aristocrat" option for the Living Lands, however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JerekKruger Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 The only think that affects which background you can take is your culture. It doesn't matter what race, subrace or class you take. As Boeroer says, the only culture that can't be an aristocrat is the Living Lands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scythesong Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 The Living Lands is like the Australian outback, except more valleys, forests and wild beasts instead of desert and wilderness. There are probably aristocrats there, pieces of them at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scythesong Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 If you combine Iceland with Jumanji (from the cartoon series), then yes. If you read the in-game journals and various other pieces of lore, the Living Lands is implied to be a place bursting with life - usually the dangerous kind - giant insects, plants that try to eat you, massive trees, etc. It's a place that requires you to constantly be on your toes if you plan on surviving there long enough.

JerekKruger Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 It should still have been possible to pick "Aristocrat" for it—an aristocrat hardened by the harshness of the Living Lands. It's not about whether there are aristocrats capable of surviving in the Living Lands, it's about whether there is an aristocracy in the Living Lands. Presumably the developers decided that this was not a part of the world which has an aristocracy and thus didn't allow the combination of the aristocrat background and the Living Lands culture. It's strange that this is the combination that you've picked out. I find it far stranger that there are no clergymen outside of the Aedyr Empire and no artists outside of Old Vailia. The lack of aristocrats in the Living Lands makes sense at least. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scythesong Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 He doesn't really offer any defense aside from "there should be..." though. I also want my character to have wings and throw fireballs at-will, but obviously we can't have everything we want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am all for player freedom, but it should happen within the confines of the setting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
