UA:Character Background: Government Background
Government Background
This set of background activities includes jobs performed for those who work for the a city, provinvial, or national government- other than those in the army or navy, who are covered under the military and maritime backgrounds described below.
Most of the recognition associated with a government background comes in the form of increases in rank (whether military or civilian in nature).
Each activity in this background is associated with a particular skill- the one mentioned first in the entry's Skills column. A character's ranks in that skill provide a bonus on recognition checks.

gollark: Hmm, the only APL thing I can get from my package manager is "GNU APL".
gollark: Is there a similar language without the incomprehensible symbols? I've heard of "J" or something.
gollark: I am somewhat interested in doing so at this point.
gollark: Clearly the solution is to use rational numbers everywhere all the time instead?
gollark: Floating points do that all the time.
