Is there a mod that splits up the character backrounds based on factions so that they make more sense? Tribals get there own set aside list of backrounds, so why don't pirates, Outlanders, and Spacers? I hate how many Glitterworld Surgeons end up besieging my base or how many crimelords I see escorting caravans.

Why a pirate kid couldn't picked up by some bypassing spacer and become a Space Marine later ?
Or some Outland farmer got banished by some reason and joined the bandits ?

Why do you want to seperate them strickly ?

Hmmm I do like how wild a lot of back stories are, but It does make sense that most pirates would have come from brutal places and most glitter world surgeons would have been born on gliterworlds. Maybe a mod that makes it so most people have Lives linked to their backstory (Glitter child glitter adult, urbworld child urbworld adult ect) and only a few were born to poor farmers but then became glitter world empaths. Extraordinary stories should be just that, extra ordinary.
Think of the rivers of blood spilled by all those generals and emperors so that, in glory and triumph, they could become the momentary masters of a fraction of a dot.
