I haven't made a character yet that had any Edges or Flaws (I've been pretty much avoiding them) but I've been reading about them a bit more lately. What are some common choices?
Which ones are very annoying in play and which ones are flat-out cheesy? Which ones are worth taking? (both good and bad) |
