Yes it does get repetitive. But in the other hand, that repetition drives those core elements of the character home to the other players. I would expect that after a few times it would become "i'm claiming advantage cause of the grandma thing". Some other players might remember them as the "grandma paladin" or whatever.I like this at first glance, problem is it seems a bit repetitive. I mean, if you want your game and characters to feel like something out of episodic television, this actually works really well. It can potentially turn characters into caricatures, which is going to be a taste thing on it being good or not.
I'd have to test it out and see how it worked in the real.
