Human

Humans are the most common peoples of Thedas, having spread all over the surface of the continent. They are generally the most well received people in so-called civilised settlements and work a variety of jobs and vocations. The class divide is stark, however. Your start in life is determined by how high or low in the ranks you had the fortune (or misfortune) to be born, although there's slightly more opportunity to rise than with other peoples. You may play as a general human, or a noble variant human. If your personal written background has a noble of low stock, who has been disenfranchised, exiled at birth or otherwise did not receive a proper noble education, choose the commoner variant.

Human Commoner
You are the bread and butter of Thedas: It's most prolific citizens who have spread out to each of its four corners. Humans rule most of the continent, but not you. Born to lower stock, you were denied a highbrow education and training in an esteemed institution, but make up for it in other ways.

Traits

 * Skill Proficiency - You are proficient in a skill of your choosing.
 * Tool Proficiency - You are proficient in with any one Artisan's Tool, in addition to any your personal background provides.

Human Noble
The upper crust, the Maker's chosen, the rulers of Thedas. Perhaps you fit well into that mold, but then again, perhaps not. As a noble you received an education and training not available to the common rabble, and have unique insight into how the politics of Thedas work... whether you like it or not.

Traits

 * Skill Proficiencies - Persuasion, History.
 * Extra Language - You've been educated, as a noble.  You may pick one extra language.
 * Combat Specialisation/Choose Feat - You may immediately unlock one combat specialisation in addition to your class's OR choose one feat.
 * Feature: Upper Crust - Like knows like, and unless you are fully disguised as a commoner, nobles will be more open to receiving you and hearing you out.
