D&D 3E/3.5 Facial illiteracy?

[abe ray]

How would you fine people build facial illiteracy as a flaw?

I would not, but you can simulate it by using Skype (all text) instead of a video program when your e-group meets.

As a penalty to checks where reading anothers face might be involved - some perception checks, insight checks, diplomacy/deceptions.

I think I would just do it as a roleplaying rather than rules issue. As in the PC or NPC should be played that way. That‘s I do things like being a noble.

Do you mean like asperg-y inability to read other people'e expressions, or that you can't remember people's faces (prosopagnosia)?

A little bit of both

Honestly I'd just make it a roleplaying thing, with no specific mechanics.
