The World of Teara Adan
A Fault generally provides one of the following:
- a static, non-numeric detriment (Can't Remember Names)
- a -1 penalty to a situational roll (Poor Eyesight: -1 on Perception attribute rolls; Arrogant: -1 on reaction rolls)
- a -2 penalty to a single skill (Stutters: -2 to oratory skill)
- a -1 penalty to a closely-related set of two skills (Tactless: -1 to Diplomacy and Seduction skills)
- a -1 penalty to a combat skill or other aspect of combat (Slow Reflexes: -1 to Brawling skill; Thin Skinned: -1 DDF; Low Pain Threshold: +1 to damage taken; etc.) -- In this system, Faults that affect combat should provide a penalty no larger than -1.
