Crafty distinctive feature.

Post by foomonkey » Sun Mar 23, 2014 10:45 am

Hey. In a previous game, my character won a riddle competition allowing him to take the crafty distinctive feature as a reward.

I was trying to use it to sneak in a later game by using to find that would fall under elusive and there was some debate in or group to the actual intent of the crafty distictive feature?

Could anyone show me the in game description of it as I checked in the book for it and it wasn't there?

Crafty isn't described anywhere in any of the books from what I can see - just done a quick search through them. You'd have to therefore create your own description. Here's what I'd use:

Crafty
You are clever at achieving your aims by indirect or deceitful methods.

... As per definition in the Oxford English Dictionary.

I wonder if they meant the reward to be Clever or Cunning rather than the non-existant crafty.
Don't start arguments over who has a better grasp of hiking and boating or someone might just bring down the banhammer.

I would say Clever would be most appropriate.


Though Crafty could be added as someone like MacGyver - can make a nuclear torpedo from a bubble-gum, baling wire, and old AOL disks.

Might also mean you're really good at knitting, crochet, and making little felt animals.
