====== Background Edges ======

These Edges are hereditary and background advantages or learned responses that develop in a character after prolonged training or exposure to certain events.

Players can choose these Edges after character creation but the Game Master might require a little more rationalization. An individual might choose the [[edges:attractive|Attractive Edge]], for example, by cleaning herself up, getting a makeover, and generally paying more attention to her looks. Characters might be able to gain the [[edges:arcane-background|Arcane Background Edge]] as well, should they find a book of forbidden knowledge or train under another arcane type in their party.

=== Design Note - Background Edges ===

//In previous versions of Savage Worlds, Background Edges could only be taken at character creation without special permission by the Game Master. We’ve changed that rule and you may now take Background Edges as advances just like any other. If you care about the rationalization of such things, you may want to link them to an event in your game. If a player wants the [[edges:fast-healer|Fast Healer Edge]], for example, you might say (or the Game Master might require) that exposure to the party’s magical healing, or a new emphasis on health and fitness, have given the hero this ability.//
