Removed and unused[edit | edit source]
Hermit[edit | edit source]
“A life spent in seclusion grants a clear mind, but makes the chaos of society distasteful.„
Sailor[edit | edit source]
“You are pushed by greed and wanderlust, ever curious, seeking hoards and wonders unknown. Finding secret treasures opens the path to new discoveries.„
Astral Zealot (Lae'zel)[edit | edit source]
“Drafted from your crèche into a military life, a taste for violence and a love for the githyanki ruler, Vlaakith, were seeded and nurtured within you. Now you are an agent for Vlaakith on the Material Plane, working toward the advancement of your species.„
In the release version of the game, Lae'zel has the Soldier background instead.
Blade of Frontiers (Wyll)[edit | edit source]
“Sleek as a leopard and bold as a bear with an empty belly, you have developed a reputation that grows and shifts along the Sword Coast. However, a discontent has settled in you, tangling your present in the cruel and complicated details of your past.„
In the release version of the game, Wyll has the Folk Hero background instead.
Blood War Veteran (Karlach)[edit | edit source]
“Conscripted by an archdevil to fight in the Blood War against insane and horrifying demons, you emerged fiery and hardened as the core of a furnace. Escaping to the Material Plane, you have left the madness of war behind. But its burning squalling specter still haunts your waking dreams.„
In the release version of the game, Karlach has the Outlander background instead.
Cloistered Stray (Shadowheart)[edit | edit source]
“Adopted into a religious convent as a child, you grew up in the warm yet rigorous embrace of the faithful. Their tutelage was rigorous, too. Not much room for warmth, though, and you have found your heart yearning for fulfillment beyond the cloister, your boots for cobbles new.„
In the release version of the game, Shadowheart has the Acolyte background instead.
Grove Tender (Halsin)[edit | edit source]
“Master over a verdant grove that was home to life of all varieties, you have lived a life of peace-making and pain-mending. Forsaking the grove was difficult, but necessary, for the safety of the natural world is in jeopardy, and it is the duty of those with green thumbs and greener souls to aid it.„
In the release version of the game, Halsin has the Outlander background instead.
Legend of Baldur's Gate (Minsc)[edit | edit source]
“If evil is a nose you are fist squashing it flat. Such is the legend surrounding you in Baldur's Gate: a hero of the most boisterous variety, armed to the teeth, and packing a tiny space hamster.„
In the release version of the game, Minsc has the Folk Hero background instead.
Trickster Hedonist (Astarion)[edit | edit source]
“Looking at you, people see someone eloquent, experienced, and a little dangerous. There's a sensuality to you that people admire, and you've made use of that fact, oh yes. If ever there was an emblem for night and all its dark promise, surely that is you.„
In the release version of the game, Astarion has the Charlatan background instead.
Underdark Exile (Minthara)[edit | edit source]
“An apostate who has renounced not one, but two faiths, you find yourself adrift in a world where the Gods are real, certainly, but untrustworthy. What does it mean to live outside of church doctrine, outside cultist dogma? It is up to you to find that out for yourself.„
In the release version of the game, Minthara has the Noble background instead.
Wizard of Waterdeep (Gale)[edit | edit source]
“Bookish and ambitious, you rose to prominence among the upper crust of spellcasters in the thriving metropolis of Waterdeep. Displaced from that comfortable refined life, you find yourself adapting to a new one on the adventurers' road.„
In the release version of the game, Gale has the Sage background instead.
World-Wise Heroine (Jaheira)[edit | edit source]
“Veteran to a host of world-threatening conflicts, you have shrugged off the very idea of retirement. Peppermints and rocking chairs are for the infirm, and your muscle and mind are still as hard and strong as steel. Besides, young adventurers are headstrong - they need a little wisdom now and then.„
In the release version of the game, Jaheira has the Soldier background instead.
