I came up with an idea for backgronds the entire party can share in 5e. Take a look and let me know what you think! http://wp.me/p4dhff-iQ (http://wp.me/p4dhff-iQ)

I like the idea. Forges the PC group into something more concrete/binding from the start. Adds some really fun layers to the DMs' side of the story as well - plot hooks, baddies, conspiracies, etc.

Thanks so much! I'm glad you like it.

I agree this is really great, and I don't know why people on your blog find the Secret Society benefit overpowered.

Something you should consider is how this interacts with how the normal background system provides skill/tool proficiencies as well as starting equipment packages.
