Cost: -5 CP/level
Description: You are a very honest person–you hate to lie, cheat, or steal.
Detriment: If you are ever required to do something dishonest, you must make a Will roll (TN=4) to do it. Even when you succeed on your Will roll, your attempt will be half-hearted and easy to see through. Additionally, unfortunately, honest people tend to believe that others are honest as well, so you also suffer a -1 penalty to your Quick when rolling to detect someone else’s dishonesty.
Typical penalties for Disability level:

* Reason for the dishonesty
* The person or thing you are trying to be dishonest to
* “Level” of dishonesty (that is, big lie vs. small lie)
