"Gives a one time 1SP discount on three skills. Do these skills need to be chosen at creation? Are those three skill discounts the only three perks for that background? How often is this background chosen by experienced players?" ~ Jim Thompson

So interesting questions for a couple of reasons ill do my best to answer what I can but it does bring up a couple of ideas

"Do the skills need to be chosen a creation?"

"You were born into the upper tier of society. You were raised with a private education and were cut from the finer cloth. Many guilds recognize you as well-to-do, and often will cut you a break to keep in your favor.

Receive a 1 SP discount on common Read & Write skills. (Applies to all so no need to choose) Receive rank 1 of a single common Knowledge (Area) at no SP cost. (automatic no choice) Receive a 1 SP discount to Knowledge (Nobility).'"(Applies to each rank when purchased no choice)

"Are those three skill discounts the only three perks for that background?" Currently yes

"How often is this background chosen by experienced players?" I've seen it taken three times by experienced players all three have leveraged it in some for to become Nobility in some form.
