(In Longinus's case, it'd be Soldier/TL2, while in Vlad II Dracula's case it'd be Soldier/TL3 or /TL4.) Think of it as the reverse of the Cutting Edge Training Perk.

Now, using a handful of skills across various TLs I'd consider it a 5- or 10-point Unusual Background; in keeping with the example of Omnilingual, I might go with a 40 point UB for "no penalties to any /TL skill regardless of whether you're in TL0 or TL12+". The character has to have the relevant skills, of course.

This seem valid?
Yep, it would be something like it. But I wanted something leveled... For example " you can use any TL 4, 6, 9 or 11 skills", or "you are good for TL 3 to 10", instead of being straight to full spectrum "from cavemen to Machine God" TL 0-12
