While your background forms the basis of who you are at the beginning of the game with three unique starting skills, you can change how your character plays or their main strength later into the experience.

Starfield Backgrounds
Right now we know about 16 Starfield backgrounds which you can choose from at the beginning of the game. The menu shows that there are more, but we haven't seen them yet.
