Weekly 4e Homebrew: Multiple Personality Detriment

Every Sunday, I'll have a completely homebrewed Dungeons and Dragons 4th Edition element that you can use in your games. I do take requests so you can either post a comment here, email me at thatrobedguy@hotmail.com with the subject "Homebrew Request", or send me a tweet on Twitter (@brannonhutchins) with the hashtag #weekly4e.

Have you ever wanted to play several characters at once? Well now you can with the newly constructed Detriment of Multiple Personality Disorder!

D&D 4e: Detriments

I caught myself wondering, earlier today: "What if I wanted to play a fat character in Dungeons and Dragons 4e? You know, like a chubby Santa Claus type of Cleric or something."

I am aware of Traits and Flaws; such mechanics have been utilized in many a Roleplaying Game. I'm also aware of at least one 3rd Party 4th Edition product of Traits and Flaws. But personally, I wanted something that felt a little less permanent; something that a character, if they wanted to, could make it a personal quest to see removed.

Ladies and Gentlemen: Detriments.
