I like the backgrounds for the new rule set but would love to customize them a bit to tweak the background without losing the new feat bonuses. Skilled from noble is key to my alchemist but I would love to change out darts as my gaming tool for a proficiency in water vehicles to reflect my sailing experience for example.

I just figured I'd put it out there since the release of the books for the next update have been postponed.

While this doesn’t really answer your question, it seems like they’ve done away with vehicle proficiencies in ‘24. (With the caveat that they’re still in ‘14, so they do still exist.) But no one seems to get them anymore and there’s no mention of them in anything. Of course I could be missing something.

I think at this point it’s meant to be a, work with your DM, type situation.

 Whoa, did I miss something? I thought it was still a proficiency? My last game ran 5e still so I haven't reviewed DnDOne rules in a few months.

 What do you mean by "the release of the books for the next update have been postponed"?

(Also the 2024 core rules aren't "DNDOne", that was the name of something else, albeit related to what would eventually become the core rulebooks)

 Yeah, they pushed back the release to November. I got an email about it. There was a defect in the hardcover books. 

I am not going to refer to it by the Gregorian Date. We can call it DnD1509DR.

 There are other books coming out before the Eberron ones:

• Heroes of the Borderlands Starter Kit
• Heroes of Faerun - Player Book
• Heroes of Faerun - DM Book

(I think that's all between now and December).
