Backgrounds are a category of avatar items obtained through various means, including (but not limited to) chance machines, events, and contests. Up to seven backgrounds can be worn on an avatar at once if the necessary amount of Wardrobe Drawer Expansions have been used.
Adventuring
These backgrounds can be obtained through Adventuring on different paths, either as random encounter gifts or by claiming a prize after collecting 50 points for one bar in the energy meter.

NPCs
Each town has backgrounds unique to their NPCs or other inhabitants that can be obtained through their chance machines. Each background (except for certain backgrounds from Stranger's Mire/The Red Tower and The Frog Pond) will have four variants: Common, Uncommon, Rare, and Alchemy. The Alchemy variant is created by alchemizing five of the Common or Uncommon variant.
A full list of NPC backgrounds by town can be found here.
Seasonal
Seasonal backgrounds are most commonly available through site events. Many have variations, in which a recoloured variant was released on the second occurrence of the event, a different recoloured variant was released for the third occurrence, and so on. Seasonal backgrounds may also be specific to deities or may be given out during Official Giveaways.
A full list of seasonal backgrounds can be found here.
Item Alchemy
Some backgrounds can be obtained either through Evolving Alchemy, Random Item Alchemy, or Item Alchemy recipes. The relevant components may be obtained through the same or different methods.
A full list of backgrounds created via alchemy can be found here.
Monthly Limited Sets
Each month, Dappervolk releases monthly limited themed clothing sets. These are available from Pai's Shop of Wonders, Oran's Emporium, and Agnes' Perpetual Shop. The clothing sets retire at the end of the month.
A full list of backgrounds from previous monthly limited sets can be found here.
Peddler's Port
There are several shops specific to Peddler's Port which contain purchasable backgrounds. Most of these are available for a flat outright potato price when in stock (such as Nico's Salon or Nico's Atelier), and in addition, some may also be exclusive to the player class (Moira's Stall, Declan's Stall, etc.).
