Space Pirate
Homebrew background for D&D 5e
Skill Proficiencies: Deception and one skill based on your role on the ship.
You have come from a dark and seedy background, where everyone is trying to get the upper hand on everyone else. You have learned to speak the language of the underworld and blend in with other outcasts. You have advantage on Charisma checks when dealing with other pirates, smugglers, and outlaws.
Your position gave you certain proficiencies and equipment that helped you in your piratical endeavors. Whether you were the captain, the first mate, the quartermaster, the navigator, the gunner, the engineer, the cook, or the deckhand, you lived a life of excitement and danger as a space pirate.
