UNCREATIVE

The character lacks the creative spark to ‘think outside the box’ and think of creative ways to approach a situation. The character doesn’t handle new situations well and relies on past experiences or wisdom to approach problems.

Effect

Uncreative is a bad trait that makes it difficult for characters to try new solutions. As a minor trait, the character takes a -2 penalty on any roll that the Gamemaster decides requires creativity. As a major trait, the character takes a -4 penalty. As a special trait, the character is so coldly logical and unimaginative that it is simply impossible for her to perform any action that requires creative thought. The special trait is generally not for player characters. You cannot have both the Uncreative trait and the Boffin trait.
