Deep Sleeper
You require more sleep than most people, and are quick to fall asleep but slow to wake up.
All attempts to put you to sleep succeed automatically. A full restful sleep requires at least 10 hours of sleep. Attempts to wake you up while sleeping, as well as Perception checks you make while you’re sleeping, are at +2 difficulty.
Forgetful
Your mind is a sieve, and while you can recall broad strokes, committing anything more detailed to memory is quite difficult.
You must roll Mind Difficulty 6 in order to remember any details (locations, names, address, where you left something that you set down, physical descriptions of things, bits of information you were told, etc…) If you fail the roll, you may Exert your mind to remember, but if you botch the roll, you are stuck.
Short Fuse
You have major issues controlling your temper.
Whenever tensions run high or someone disrespects you, you must roll Self-Control not to escalate the situation or have a violent reaction.

Attuned Autoimmune
Your background has exposed you to a wide variety of toxins and diseases, and you have adapted to resist.
