Faults
Faults are a way of rounding out your character by providing personality quirks, duties or obligations, and various other "coloring". Each Fault has a listed value that can be used to purchase Benefits (see the following section). The points gained from Faults may also be used to spend on skills.
This list of Faults has been condensed to general groups rather than specific faults. For a complete list and detailed description of all of the faults available for Forge Engine, refer to the full version.
