Virtues

Conscience

Conscience is a Trait that allows characters to evaluate their conduct with relation to what is “right” and “wrong.” A character’s moral judgment with Conscience stems from her attitude and outlook. Conscience factors into the difficulty of many rolls to avoid committing a transgression. A character with a high Conscience rating feels remorse for transgressions, while a character with a lower Conscience may be more callous or ethically lax. • Uncaring
•• Normal
••• Ethical
•••• Righteous
••••• Remorseful

Self-Control

Self-Control defines a character’s discipline. Characters with high Self-Control rarely succumb to emotional urges, and are thus able to restrain their darker sides more readily than characters with low Self-Control. • Unstable

••• Temperate
•••• Hardened
••••• Total self-mastery

All characters have a Courage Trait. Courage is the quality that allows characters to stand in the face of fear or daunting adversity. It is bravery, mettle, and stoicism combined.
