PURCHASER
Nice concepts but you might want to expand it by adding organization backgrounds like you did in the general book, perhaps some taken from the old 2nd ed Book of Dwarves. WOC already brought back the Battlerager in the Sword Coast but some of the other kits from the CBoD would work as Backgrounds.
Some examples I suggest:

Hearthguard (female dwarf only) Skill Athletics, Perception. Tool: Gaming Set (king's Table/Dwarven Chess) Equipment: Dwarven Axe, Shield, Portable game set, tabard of clan hold. Feature: as a defender of dwarven holds, you can (as a bonus action) interpose yourself to protect others taking a hit meant for them. An attacker's roll is made against your AC instead of the intended target. If the attack hits, you take the damage instead.

Highborn (dwarf only) Skills: Persuasion, History, Investigation. Equipment: Set of fine dwarven clothes, broach or ring with clan insignia, a book of beaten copper pages containing dwarven law codes. Feature: a high ranking...See more

Those are really great suggestions! I'd want to investigate all of the "Backgrounds" series to ensure I can have organizations in them all, but it's certainly something I'm open to doing!

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
