People are like putty in your hands. You know what makes them tick, you can tease out their heart’s desires after a few minutes of conversation, and with a few leading questions you can read them like they were children's books. It’s a useful talent, and one that you’re perfectly willing to use for your advantage. You know how to say or do just the right thing to earn people's approval and your wily ways allow you to snake around the law, infiltrate tricky political environments, and win your way into the hearts of the people around you. You may have been a political figure in the past, whose immoral schemes were finally discovered, a snake-oil salesman or entertainer, or simply a poor pauper who learned that the tongue is as much a money-maker as any skill. Regardless, spinning tales, lies, and persuasive embellishments of stories and facts, you have learned to convince even the most stubborn person to see things your way.
Your background gives you advantage on persuasion checks in conversations.
