What Does Your Character Know?
Texto
All residents of rural farmland regions have a greater awareness of the following topics:
You have general knowledge of the political climate within your region. You can name major families, prosperous local farmers, and important government officials to whom your family or local community reports.
You grew up hearing stories from your parents, grandparents, and great-grandparents of major political upheavals or forces that moved through your region and can relate either detailed or exaggerated accounts of any notable events that may have taken place in your family members’ lifetimes.
You are aware of past and predicted harvest times, the timing of the seasons, and any peculiar weather phenomena in your region. You are also keenly aware of the impact of any events (political or otherwise) that interfere with your community’s livelihood: the harvest.
You have inherited a strong oral tradition and can sing or recite folk songs or stories passed down from your ancestors.
You have a working knowledge of agricultural practices and how to make a living in your region.
You are largely unaware of larger political movements and concerns, and your cultural awareness is mostly confined to your local community
