In the Young Kingdoms, no man is whole.

Every hero bears some mark of weakness—of pride, of fate, of doom. These flaws are not merely hindrances, but the very things that make a character worth remembering… and worth destroying.

Most flaws impose a Penalty Die in appropriate situations. Others grant the GM narrative leverage, complications, or grim opportunities.

== On Doom and Weakness ==

In this world, flaws are not inconveniences.

They are the cracks through which Chaos whispers, the chains by which Law binds, and the marks by which fate recognizes its prey.

A wise player does not avoid them.

He chooses them carefully… and waits to see how they ruin him.
