Female Quirks and Flaws
by Natasha Neame (HMGMA# AU-1-02055-05) with assistance from the Ladies of Hack

Shopaholic: Characters with this flaw are compelled to shop at every stall, market, town, and run-down shack that they encounter. On rolling this quirk, the player must then roll an additional 1d6 to determine the specific shopping addiction. Suggested by dolliest and Whitney Jo Currie.

— Born to Shop (on a roll of 1-2):If there's a market in town, she’s there. Nothing is ever as important as money well spent. The character must spend 1d20 gp at every market she encounters, or she leaves depressed, and frustrated with life. (Minor, 6 points)

— Clothes Collector (on a roll of 3-4):This character spends a minimum of 1d20 gp specifically on one type of clothing (roll 1d6: 1: accessories, 2: hat, 3: dress, 4: shirt, 5: pants, 6: shoes) at every market she encounters. She insists on bringing at least four of these items with her, regardless of encumbrance. After all, you never know which boots (or dress, hat, etc.,) you’ll need when trudging through a swamp. This character often has a pack animal (or two) specifically for clothes. (Minor, 7 points)

— Designer Labels (on a roll of 5-6):It's not enough to buy good quality gear, if a famous artisan does not make it. This character always goes out of her way to buy from the best shops in town (enduring with a smile any resulting hit on her finances). In game terms, this translates as always paying for Superior quality items or better (see GMG p142), even a small item like a piece of parchment. (Minor, 7 points)

Sister Solidarity:In this character’s mind, fellow women can never do wrong and always must be believed. (This PCs may save vs. apology at the GM’s discretion if another female’s claims are too outlandish). This character refuses to fight any other females unless they injure her first – even if they are attacking her companions (it’s obviously the fault of a man somewhere…). Instead, she often raises one or both fists and cheers, often some phrase like “Right on, sister! Stick it to the man!” (Major, 8 points) Suggested by Katie White-Sonby.

QUIRKS, PERSONALITY

Bitch:This character is a strong, stubborn woman who knows what she wants. She is supremely confident in her knowledge of what's best, and bossy to the point of arrogance. She takes the chance to say, "I told you so" in the most annoying singsong voice whenever possible. When proven wrong (yeah, right…), she denies it to the bitter end. She refuses to allow anyone to help her (whether the help is real or imagined) and often gives unsolicited advice to other people. She loses 1 point of temporal Honor whenever she allows a male to help her in any way. (Minor, 6 points) Suggested by Jammeez and Shaby Belle.
