Background: Avid Chess Player

The Chess Player is one of the backgrounds from the Nerd social group.

Description: You were always into chess as a child, and you have studied all the great chess masters. You can even name them all as well as their favorite strategies! You find nothing more interesting than matching your wits against someone else's in a game of chess. It has left you with the ability to often see the consequences of your actions better than most as you are used to looking several moves ahead. All of this has left you with little time to make many friends, and you rarely spend any time outdoors.

Notes:

The Chess Player has the joint highest starting [[Intelligence]] and [[Perception]] of any background, as well as above average [[Reaction]].
