Advantage - Ease
The character’s body seems to adapt to whatever they are holding, allowing them to handle weapons and armour with greater ease than most. They can wield a heavy machine gun while swimming fully clothed, and barely notice body armour when moving. In game terms, the PC is unaffected by the heavy weapon trait. Heavy weapons still have to be used with both hands.
Disadvantage - Crude
Either because of their upbringing or following some mental trauma, the character cannot help but add lewd remarks and coarse innuendoes to everything they say. Their singular fixation and rude outbursts can lead to uncomfortable, embarrassing, and outright dangerous situations for them, for their fellow Knights, and for people to whom they are attracted. A penalty of +1 difficulty level applies to all the character’s Eloquence and Aura skill checks when communicating with someone whom they find sexually attractive (at the GM and the player’s discretion).
