[QUOTE="Sage, post: 2544532, member: 13468"] [b]Flaws for commoners[/b] This is from a dragon magazine and I couldn't help repeating a few of them. Kudos goes yo Tony Mosley for the article. [b]CHICKEN INFESTED[/b] You've got chickens. [b]Effect:[b] 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. [b]DELICIOUS[/b] Someone cast [i]divine flavor[/i] on you. [b]Effect:[/b] All monsters attack you if able, regardless og their attitude toward the rest of your party. In addition, you go down smooth. When subjected to a swallow whole special attack, you are treated as two size categories smaller than you actually are. [b]DIRT FARMER[/b] You farm. Now get back to work, serf! [b]Effect:[/b] You must spend 18 hours every day farming for your liege. If you fail to spend 18 hours every day farming, your liege has you killed. [b]NAGGING COUGH[/b] You are sick. [b]Effect:[/b] You begin play afflicted with mummy rot. You've made no successful Fort saves to kick the disease. [b]PESANT HAT[/b] You have a pesant hat. [b]Effect:[/b] You suffer a -15 penalty on all Diplomacy checks. Other characters in your party can cast [i]command[/i] on you once per day, with no save allowed. [b]Special:[/b] If you remove the hat, crows peck at your exposed brains, killing you. [b]PIG POND[/b] You have a pig. Good for you. [b]Effect:[/b] You must at all times carry a pig that weighs an amount equal to your maximum load. The pig refuses to walk on its own. If your Strength score increases, the weight of the pig increases to match your new maximum load. If your Strength score decreases... get a cart. [b]Special:[/b] If more than a few inches ever separates you and the pig, the pig transforms inot Orcus and skins you (which probably kills you). [b]UNIMPORTANT NPC[/b] Nobody cares about you. [b]Effect:[/b] You have no name. You are never included when the group divides its treasure. You are never part of the initiative order (and thus you always go last... if your DM even lets you go at all). [b]WERESHEEP[/b] Theresheep! [b]Effect:[/b] You are afflicted with lycanthropy. Not such a flaw, right? Your hybrid and animal forms are of a harmless sheep. When in hybrid or animal form you suffer the effects of the Delicious flaw.[/b][/b] [/QUOTE]
