Your favourite trait?

On the chivalry thread below is mentioned the "Warlord of Terror" trait. Wow, what a great name, sounds like one I'd like a character to have!!! What's your favourite trait, or the trait with the funniest name?

I had a general who was "Brutally Scarred" Making him Barbus the Scarred, which I believe adds 8 hit points to your general. Thats a lot.

I get that one a lot, the general receives it when he comes very close to death in battle.

My favorite trait belonged to this priest that later went on to become the pope. It was "secretly a woman"

I can't remember the effect of the trait but I know it was negative.

There's a film about that, I think it was called "Pope Joan" - nobody knows she is a woman until she gives birth on the steps of St Peters cathedral!!

If she gave birth, then I'm guessing at least ONE other person knew she was a woman.

In the film she pretends to be a man to avoid being raped while travelling in the countryside and joins a group of travelling monks but later is blackmailed into a relationship with one of the priests who finds out her secret, and when the child is born the crowd see it as the work of the devil and the mob kills her and the child as devil spawn - a very sad and violent ending

"Master Assassin" - wether it´s a Family Member or one of my assassins, either way can be quite useful

Actually, it gives +1 Piety, so its positive

I have two favorite traits. The above-mentioned "Brutally Scarred" and the one that makes your general be named "The Saint". I forgot its name, but it gives you around +5 to chivalry.

Hmm... I like the GoodAttacker 5 trait (one time I started a campaign as the Papal States and decided to conquer the world with a warlord Pope so I used cheats to make him an amazing commander) but I don't remember the name of it.

That would be "Bastion of Chivalry"

**Nazgûl Killer** · January 18, 2012, 08:23 AM

Yeah, I think that's the one. "Bastion" just sounds like such an awesome word.

**Moonwrath** · January 18, 2012, 09:54 AM

Trouble at Home is a good trait if its not ur FL or FH :p

**=Bright=** · January 18, 2012, 01:44 PM

Anything that gives you dread. I want my generals to be the most brutal and violent persons to walk on earth.

// my favourite ancillary is the "torturer" <3

**ChivalrousKiller** · January 18, 2012, 01:53 PM

"Can tell a tale". Somehow, I just laugh every time I see it

**Aymer de Valence** · January 18, 2012, 02:47 PM

I never checked if it was a trait (probably was), but i sure do find "The Mad" epithet, which comes after a character's name funny lol. My faction leader unfortunately gained this epithet, and so did his son (also heir)........yeah.....my family line was pretty much screwed for the next 40 or so years lol

"This is madness!"

"No.
This...
is...
SPARTAAAAAAAAAAAAA"

Look at it that way. They can still be ultra-fighters with six-packs.
