   * **New thought on backgrounds:  go for a series of Decks.  Deck-1 family profession:  usually gets you just a skill or tool proficiency;  Deck-2  Weird background--use the backgrounds currently on your heritage tables, you can freely open up the rewards;  Deck-3 Special Features: total grab-bag.   Each player can choose to draw from none, some or all of the decks, picks three cards from any deck he chooses and selects the 1 card that he wishes to apply to his character.   Special Features are picked at First, 4th and 8th level, the other 2 are only chosen at generation.   This will give a wide possible set of elements added to the characters, and it remains quick and snappy, not bogging down generation and not creating "ideal build" syndrome.**
+  * //I like it! Let's make more decks. That way we can both contribute. I really wanted to make the rolls flavorful with respect to each heritage, but I think I'm finding that it could easily be adapted for all twelve heritages. Let's do the three decks.//
