Coward
Mental Fault
You can't stand the sight of blood — well, yours, anyway. You take a −4 penalty on all Courage rolls, and you likewise take a −1 penalty on all offensive combat actions. This is because your entire attention is devoted to protecting yourself from harm: you gain a +1 bonus to your Defense Roll (your buddies can fend for themselves). In any combat situation, you will likely flee at the earliest opportunity. You must make a Self-Control + Focus check or spend your actions in combat running away/seeking safety. If you cannot escape, you will surrender. Combat-oriented or courageous characters who know of your cowardice will certainly lose respect for you.
