Rather than having you vote on individual skills, I’ll now ask a simple question: what is Emrys’s backstory? We know he’s an isekai, but he’s subbing into the body of some rando in universe and that may or may not have baggage. At the very least, it determines what skills will be on his character sheet.

Criminal: got by through theft, trickery, and his wits

Performer: a real charmer, some kind of musician or actor. Got by as an entertainer with his pretty face and high charisma.

Respectable Tradesman: he had a whole life ahead of him as someone with a legitimate trade like carpentry, tailoring, or blacksmithing.

Fisherman: lived his whole life on a boat, a ship’s not quite the same but he has a solid foundation on what is needed to be a decent sailor.

Merchant Class: The upper middle class of the Shackles. An excellent education is all but assured.

Pirate Lord’s Brat: bastard child of one pirate lord or another. They may rule the Shackles but this won’t help near as much as you might hope. Emphasis on social skills and baggage is all but assured.

Orphan: Used to surviving on very little and looking after yourself.

Slave: stuck doing the grunt work to pay of some massive debt (which might be fabricated)

Temple Prostitute: the classiest brothels are all run by the church of Callistria, and tend to also be full of spies and informants.
