This article is a temporary repository for Flaws, consisting of the stats for the Flaw (FP for each level it can have) and perhaps a brief writeup, and short notes about other Flaws that potentially overlap.

To start with, this is just about moving the old material from the (small) MS Excel spreadsheet on Flaws, and to here.

Deferential means that the character is always respectful and disobedient of his betters (in terms of status or age). It is a very common attitude in people of pre-modern mind, but note that anything more than 2d can be very problematic for adventurer characters. See also Respectful.

Omen-Seeker means that the character is constantly on the lookout for signs and portents, random events that can be interpreted as meaningful indicators that good or (especially!) bad luck lies ahead, or which tells him what strategic course to follow. It is essentially a specific kind of superstition which was very common in pre-scientific times.

Special Flaws

Driving Goal

Driving Goal works differently from other Flaws, in that the Severity is deliberately set very low relative to the predicted degree of inconvenience that the Driving Goal causes for the character. This is in order to strongly encourage the player to also select one or two other Flaws, so as to at least give the character the semblance of an individual personality. To compensate for this, a few compensatory DPs are also given directly.

Goal
Class 		XP DP Example
Major
Grand The plot of Defender of the Crown computer game (restoring Richard Lionhert to the throne)
Epic Elliott Ness vs Al Capone. King Leonidas & Spartans vs Xerxes & Persians
Mythic Frodo Baggins, incompetent little Hobbit, succeeding in taking the Ring deep into hostile lands, all the way to Mount Doom

The XP multiplier is applied to all Goal XP gained from achivements in direct pursuit of the Driving Goal, but XP from other Goals are divided by this value instead, serving to encourage monomaniacal behaviour.

A Mythic Goal is just that, something extreme that is almost certainly impossible, such as slaying Jesus of Nazareth (this will obviously become the goal of the Árth character Asbrand the Stuttering, if he succeeds in his first Driving Goal which is to restore a proper pagan to be King over the Danes - itself an Epic Goal, given the formidable opposition) or eradicating all sale of illegal drugs from an entire nation, while taking on a powerful, ruthless and psychopathic gangster, Elliott Ness-style, is an Epic Goal. Toppling Prince John from the throne of England, and paying the ransom of Richard the Lion-Hearted and restoring him to the throne, is a Grand Goal.

In general, players and GMs should err on the side of causion when classifying the Driving Goals of PCs. Most are Major Goals or Grand Goals. Also note that any Grand Goal of any one character is quite likely to come to dominate the campaign, and the same can happen with a Major Goal, although it depends much on the style of the campaign, with regards to party cohesion, and even how party-based it is.

One possible "metric" is to try to predict the number of fictional depictions that the struggle for the Driving Goal (whether the character succeeds or fails) would result in, if the character was historical. Is one single obscure novel written about the character? Or are recurring films and TV shows made, such as with Elliott Ness? Or is the heroic last stand worthy of several Hollywood blockbuster movie, as in King Leonidas and the Spartans at Thermophylae? Or travelling many hundreds of miles, lightly armed and incompetent to the point of silliness, through hostile lands teeming with Orcs and other nasty creatures, to drop a ring into a volcano?

Note: The scale Major/Grand/Epic/Legendary/Mythic should probably be compressed to just 4 steps, starting with Severity 2 and ending with Severity 5, named Major Grand, Epic and Mythic. Maybe make Major Severity 1.5?

Elements of Religous Flaw

Letter Meaning Explanation
A Ascetic
D Diet You adhere to dietary restrictions (i.e. on food and drink), some or all of the time, based on your religious faith, e.g. the mild constant dietary restrictions of a Christian plus the occasional "fasting" period, or the constant dietary restrictions of a Moslem is one R Element, while the many dietary laws of Judaism constitutes two or three R Elements depending on how important it os for the character.
M Missionary You are compelled by your faith to spread the word, either trying to recruit othes to your specific faith (conversion), or else to demonstratively assert the superiority of your faith over that of other faiths ("my gods are stronger than your gods!"). Which one it is depends mostly on what kind of religion your religion is. Abrahamic religions tend to preach and do missionary works. Indo-European paganism does not.
O Obedience You defer to, respect, and obey your religious superiors. Note that a character who is a priest or high priest himself must still respect higher-ranking clergy, although it makes little sense for a very high-ranked clergyperson to have the O Element tripled.
P Purity
R Ritual
U UnWorldliness

Elements to be defined later.

Note that one or more Elements may be doubled (e.g. AA or RR) or even tripled (e.g. PPP or UUU). DDDRRR thus counts as six elements, 3xD and 3xR.

Respectful

Deferential makes the character inclined to defer to those who are of higher social status than he, or who are older (based on the common pre-modern assumption that the elderly must be respected). Respectful instead makes the character defer to people based on other criteria.

It is possible to have both Deferential and Respectful, but they often synergize. Like Deferential, Respectful is a Favoured Flaw.

A male character who is Respectful towards Men must eithe see himself as not-yet-mature, or see himself as not-quite-a-man in some other regard, e.g. being a eunuch, a homosexual, or a celibate (for religious reasons or other reasons) or otherwise non-reproducing. Same goes for a female character who is Respectful towards Females. It is possible for such a character to be Respectful towards both sexes.

Honesty

Type Sev. Flaw 2d 3d 4d 5d 6d 7d 8d 9d
St 3.5 Honesty (Lie) 3 10 20 24 26 27
St 2 Honesty (Steal) 1 7 12 14 15

St 5 Honesty (S&D) 5 13 27 34 37 39
St 7.5 Honesty (LSD) 9 23 54 70 78 81 82 83

A character with Honesty (LSD) 3d or stronger is usually referred to, by GMs and players, as a "Paladin on LSD".

Note: Each Element, Lie and Steal and Deceive, must be carefully explained and defined.

Animosity

An Animosity is a serious dislike for a particular group or classification of people (or sometimes non-people, e.g. Dragons) that can be frequently or rarely encountered withint the setting, and with the dislike manifesting in one or several out of five ways, defined by the mnemonic CHIPS:

Animosity Elements

Letter Meaning Explanation
C underestimates Combat/Courage The character is inclined to assume that members of the group are feeble in combat, and that the do not constituce a tactical threat; that they are physically and martially weak.
H Hates The character hates members of the group, and will strike out opportunistically when he gets the chance to inflict harm on them.
I underestimates Intellect The character is inclined to assume that members of the group are intellectiually feeble, and that they do not constitute a strategic threa; that they are stupid and highly unlikely to understand complex problems and tricks.
P insults/Provokes The character has a tendency to verbally lash out at the group, mostly when members are present but also when they are not, in either case expressing unfavourable opinions of them (possibly the nature of those opinions are influenced by other Elements that the character's Animosity may contain, but the opinions are always negative and insulting).
S Suspects (paranoia) The character has a tendency to suspect the group as a whole, or gatherings of members of the group, or individual specimens, to be conspiring either against the character directly or against the group or groups that he belongs to, with the purpose of overthrowing his way of life. The character's attitude is paranoid, and at high Roll Strengths he can come across (to those who do not share this specific flavour of Animosity towards the group) as a mad conspiracy theorist.

St. 3.5 Anti-Semitism (Animosity) CHPS Small 3 10 20 24 26 27 Christian lands, and African Caliphate
St. 3 Anti-Semitism (Animosity) CHPS Tiny 3 9 17 21 22 23 Version for use in pagan lands
St. 4.5 Anti-Semitism (Animosity) CHPS Medium 4 12 25 30 33 34 35 Iberian or Arabic Caliphate

Anti-Semitism is vs Jews which are ausually Small group, usually CHPS (there's no tendency to assume that Jews are intellectually inferior), but in pagan lands they're Tiny and in some Islamic lands (the Iberian Caliphate and Arabic Caliphate) they're a Medium-sized group.

Christian (or Islamic) Intolerance is vs a Large group and usually involves the Elements of I, P and S. (variant without P Element)

St. 0.5 Islamic Intolerance (Animosity) IS Tiny 4 5 6 As above, but without the P Element

See also Abrahamic Intolerance, which is a common form of Intolerance among Moslems.

St. 2.5 Abrahamic Intolerance (Animosity) IPS Small 2 8 14 17 18 19 Typical version of this Animosity
St. 1 Abrahamic Intolerance (Animosity) IS Small 1 5 7 8 9 Version without the P (Provokes/Insults) Element



Islamic Intolerance is sometimes vs a Tiny group, if the character in question subscribes to the belief that any scriptured religion is acceptable, including Hinduism and Zoroastrism, rather than only those that are based on a quranic prophet (which limits it to Christianity and Judaism, and a few obscure memetic relatives such as Mandaeism).

Abrahamic Intolerance is similar to the above, but is vs a Small group. (again, add a variant without the P Element). This is the same as the less mild form of the Ahl al-Kitab principle of Islam.

Type Sev. Flaw Elements Gr.Siz. 2d 3d 4d 5d 6d 7d 8d 9d Notes
St. 3.5 Jewish Intolerance (Animosity) IS Huge 3 10 20 24 26 27 Typical Jewish-specific version
St. 5 Jewish Intolerance (Animosity) IPS Huge 5 13 27 34 37 39 As above but with a P Element added

Note that Abrahamic Intolerance is somewhat more common among Jews, in 10th century Ärth, than Jewish Intolerance.


Jewish Intolerance is vs a Huge group (almost nobody is Jewish!) and tends to be IS, although sometimes there's an added P Element. It's rare in general, but the Ärth character Solomon ben Melchior is one example (and he most definitely has the IPS version!). Most Jews instead exhibit Abrahamic Intolerance.

Type Sev. Flaw Elements Gr.Siz. 2d 3d 4d 5d 6d 7d 8d 9d Notes
St. 2.5 Misogyny (Animosity) CI Medium 2 8 14 17 18 19 use in Christian and Moslem lands
St. 4 Misogyny (Animosity) CIP Medium 4 11 22 27 29 30 31 as above, but added P Element
St. 4 Misogyny (Animosity) CI Huge 4 11 22 27 29 30 31 Use in Keltic lands
St. 5.5 Misogyny (Animosity) CIP Huge 5 14 30 38 42 43 44 as above, but added P Element
St. 3.5 Misogyny (Animosity) CI Large 3 10 20 24 26 27 Use in non-Keltic pagan lands
St. 5 Misogyny (Animosity) CIP Large 5 13 27 34 37 39 as above, but added P Element

Misogyny is vs a Medium group in general, because in most places women have very little influence, (but add a variant for Large and for Huge group if the character is from a pagan background or has lived most of his life in a pagan area). Elements are CI, with a variant for +P (for a total of 5 variant permutations)

Type Sev. Flaw Elements Gr.Siz. 2d 3d 4d 5d 6d 7d 8d 9d Notes
St. 3 Homophobia (Animosity) CHP Small 3 9 17 21 22 23 vs active (and suspected) male "bottoms"
St. 4 Homophobia (Animosity) CHP Medium 4 11 22 27 29 30 31 Wider version, vs all men that fail to live up to heteronormative standards of masculinity
St. 2.5 Homophobia (Animosity) CP Medium 2 8 14 17 18 19 The wider version, but without the H Element

Homophobia tends to involve Elements of C (regarding gay men as being severely deficient in masculinity) and H (hatred - duh!) and P (creating an unpleasant verbal atmosphere), and is either vs a Small group if it is only against men who are openly homosexual (and usually only passive homosxuals - active penetrators are in this case not hated), or a Medium group if the Animosity is more wide-ranging and is against all men who fail to live up to heteronormative ideals of masculinity and manliness.
