Another little "update" that DW was better without - do we really need to bribe players with bonus experience points to play characters with interesting or difficult backgrounds?
Yes, I never really understood the need for it either. Still, it was there; I used it; and it gave me a chance to make life miserable for the character who opted to have it...*

As it happened, the knights and barbarians in the group ended up quickly catching up, and even overtaking, the assassin in XP - so it wasn't that much of a "break".
