Character Flaws

[was]

I'm looking at incorporating these into an upcoming 3.5 campaign. Anyone know where I can find a comprehensive listing?

GURPS has some pretty good lists. Of course, most are Advatages or Disadvantages, so may be more than you're looking for. (But many come in 'levels', or can be downgraded as needed.)

I only know of the ones from Unearthed Arcana and the Class Acts series in Dragon magazine. The Dragon Magazine ones are on the whole more interesting than the ones in Unearthed Arcana as well... my favorite is:

CHICKEN INFESTED
You've got chickens
Effect: Whenever you draw a weapon or pull an item out of a container, you have a 50% chance of drawing a live chicken instead. No, we don't know where the chickens come from; it's your character.

(No, they're not all silly, this was from the April issue)

But which came first, the Dragon or the Drakan.


Ahem. I actually found one list of traits and flaws, on wizards.com, but I don't know how much use it'll be. Still, it's a start, right?

you can also try 4ed.

Hackmaster has a list too.

If you're looking into retro-fitting from other systems, Deadlands has a pretty extensive list of both advantages and disadvantages. Of course the western flavor probably won't fit into what your looking for, but the ideas are there.

You'll find character flaws introduced in Unearthed Arcana. You can also find several flaws in the following sources:

Dragon # 324, p. 93 -- flaws for druids
Dragon # 324, p. 96 -- flaws for paladins
Dragon # 324, p. 98 -- flaws for bards
Dragon # 325, p. 93 -- flaws for barbarians
Dragon # 326, p. 91 -- flaws for clerics
Dragon # 327, p. 93 -- flaws for sorcerors
Dragon # 328, p. 41 -- flaws for non-humans

There have been more flaws in more recent issues of Dragon, but I only compiled my list through issue #328.

Do you or someone else have a list of these online somewhere?

I don't have a list of them, and I haven't found such a list -- not to say such a list doesn't exist, though.

I simply made my "index" in order to remind me of which books/magazines to bring when my nephew's group was rolling up characters for an Eberron game where I forced them to use flaws.
