A good backstory, I like to start with some kind of basis to play my games. For example, in my current game, I started with 3 separate households.
So, for example, one household is as young war widow with a child. With the help of her parents and in- laws, she went to school while raising her son till he was old enough to start school. Hoping first a new start, she moved to Oasis Springs with her son to start a new job as a political activist. She is from a rural area and has traditional values.
Currently, she has just married Johnny Zest and her brother-in-law, just aged up from a teen, moved into Johnny's old trailer to become an astronaut, there is plenty of space for a rocket ship there.
I can't wait to see what's next!
