Additional 2e Content Timeline
 
When will the ancestries from Age of Ashes be added? How bout Pathfinder Society Ancestries from boons? Fall of Plaugestone?
What about other options from the books- items ect ect

Interested in this as well. I'm creating a character for an upcoming campaign of Age of Ashes, and I don't know how to create a legal background for him from the Player's Guide.

As an easy workaround, add the lore skill to your skills, then use the custom background option.

This can be a temporary solution, but it creates errors in the character sheet, since custom backgrounds only allow one trained skill, while Age of Ashes backgrounds have each two trained skills: a Lore skill and another one.

You select the custom backgrounds non-lore skill on the "Skills" tab... :)

Yes, I know. But this way you will have a warning in the Background and the Skills page, because a Custom Background doesn't automatically count as trained the Lore skill you choose to link to it, so you need to check two Skills as trained, while the Background only allows one trained Skill.

Maybe I'm the one doing it wrong, but to me looks like that at the time being it's not possible to add Age of Ashes' Backgrounds without incurring in warnings.

Let's try going over the steps for doing this:

1) You add a Custom Background. If you want you can then click into the Custom Background and give it a custom name.
2) Then go to the characters Skills tab and add your Lore Skill.
3) Then check-mark the "non-Lore" skill you plan to make trained. (ie Athletics).
4) Go back to your Custom Background and from the dropdown menu select your Lore skill.

You now have a Trained Lore skill and a Trained Non-Lore skill. ;)

Ok, this way it works. I have to say, it's not a very "n00b friendly" method, but it's the best thing we have until the new Backgrounds get implemented in HLO.
