Background Bonuses (flavor)

This version of this mod was made to be 'vanilla+' (easy to add without it overly changing the game from the typical vanilla experience). If you would like to play the original version of this mod that has stronger bonuses, with the purpose of enabling new builds and synergies, you can find it here.

All background bonus effects will show up in the tooltips of each bro's background. Bonus effects also listed below:
