I am sorely tempted to implement this in my Frankengame ruleset, but it implies a system that doesn't provide regular feats and stat boosts with leveling, ala' 3.x and 5e. I'm good with that, but it pushes my Frankengame closer to B/X than before.
Something I am also good with.
PC background – Roll on the Failed Careers table (from Ten Foot Polemic: 200 Failed Medieval Careers). Each time you level, roll on the Retroactive Background Table (from Ten Foot Polemic: 1d100 Retroactive Backstory). As the game progresses, use of the I Know a Guy rule can expand character background, perhaps tied into the Retroactive Backstory.
Then there is the matter of Faith. For Clerics (and Paladins, if I include them), it is of utmost importance, but for other classes, not so much.
I haven't decided upon a pantheon yet, and would be happy letting players choose/design their own deities on the fly.
So I guess that is for another post.
