One of my PCs has his heart set on making his character blind from the outset. He's a human raised by Dragonborn, and he has an elaborate backstory that the PC's really excited about.
I've told him that we could just run combat as if he could see, and that he could treat it more as a roleplaying aspect (which he loves), but it doesn't sound like a very creative thing to do with him. It would be nice to have that reflected in battle in some way as well, so his character is 'always' blind.
Perhaps rough terrain acts like a wall? For example. At the same time, I don't want to punish him either, since he should be a perfectly capable level 1 fighter.
Any clever ideas?
