New Traits

[remoh]

I had a couple PCs write up some interesting backgrounds, but there where no good traits to really sync up with what the had written.

I really like how the trait system works and rewards the PCs for thier background choices. So, I can up with two new traits. I figured I would post them so others could use them:

University Educated: While you lack formal experience in the field, you have spend numerous years studying in dark libraries and small classrooms.

Benefit: You gain a +1 trait bonus to Knowledge (history) and Knowledge (geography) checks. In addition, one of these skills (your choice) is always a class skill for you.

Uncouth: You have not washed in years. While this does not engender you to others, you have been exposed to numerous germs and diseases.

Benefit: You get +1 to Fortitude saves.
