Now thats a whole different angle than the one I considered. Below is sort of how I was starting to construct the function.

Code:

function barbarian_background(){
    $background = array("Athletics"=>'10', "Perception"=>'5', "Resilience"=>'10', "Stealth"=>'5');
    return $background;
        }
$background = barbarian_background();

print_r($background);

if(array_key_exists("Athletics", $background)) {
    echo "<br> Bingo!  Athletics is there.  Currently it's at a ".$background["Athletics"].".  Let's update that to ";
    $background["Athletics"] =  $background["Athletics"] + 5;
    echo $background["Athletics"].".";
    
    }

I'm just not sure how to handle things like picking 2 of 5 possible skills to add 5 bonus points to at this point. Or picking 1 of 6 possible new skills yet.

I'm sure I can figure it out though, still I am open to suggestions.
