You need to be running at a timing of First/1001 or higher to have that conditional work. The Background.? hero tag is not placed until First/1000.

Then you can just use this conditional to check for the correct background:
First/1001
Code:
fieldval:pIsOn <> 0 & Background.bckAcolyte

I tried your conditional. Unfortunately it won't let it use it after First/500; at least in 5E.

Hero Lab was forced to stop compilation after the following errors were detected:

Thing 'p5CDiVVBGF' - Condition phase/priority (First/1001) for bootstrap thing 'ab5CDiVbgAcolyte' occurs after earliest rule/script (First/500)

I tested using a 5e background. So what timing is the script that runs on ab5CDiVbgAcolyte? My take is its first 500 and you will need to move it back past First/1000.

Well, this fixed one issue but now I get a different one.

The background feature shows up fine under Background Features on the Background tab. However, it won't show up under Specials . . . <sigh>

A timing issue?

On your new background ability (thingid.ab5CDiVbgAcolyte) have you made sure to mark the "Show in Specials Tab?" checkbox?

That was the first thing I check on. It why I am so puzzled. I tried restarting HeroLab and using <CTRL>-R

That's why I am wondering if it is some sort of timing issue.
