One Hander - You are more likely to hit with
smaller, single-handed weapons, and less likely to
hit with larger, two-handed weapons.
Finesse - You do less damage, but have a greater
chance of doing a critical hit.
Kamikaze - You act before other people, since you
have a higher Sequence, but you lose some Armor
Class and are easier to hit.
Heavy Handed - You do more damage in melee or hand-
to-hand combat. And while you have the same chance
to cause a critical hit, your critical hits are not
as good as the next fellow.
Fast Shot - You can use a projectile or thrown
weapon more often each combat turn. The AP cost to
use a weapon is reduced by one. Unfortunately, you
cannot make targeted shots if you have this Trait.
You will not even be able to switch to targeted
shot mode if you are a Fast Shot.
Bloody Mess - This has no real game effect, beyond
the fact that you will always see the bloodiest way
a person can die. This is based on the setting of
the Violence Level in the preference screen (see
page 77.)
Jinxed - Everyone in the game is more likely to
have a critical failure when fighting. That
includes you, too.
Good Natured - Your combat skills start lower than
normal, but your skills in First Aid, Doctor,
Speech and Barter start higher.
Chem Reliant - Your chance to be addicted when
using a Chem is higher, but you recover faster.
