Genetic Benefit (UM Page #13)
Select or roll for one genetic benefit below. You can gain additional benefits by either forgoing one of your +1 ability score increases, or by incurring a penalty by selecting a shortcoming. The GM may choose to limit the number of benefits you can gain - generally no more than two or three. The GM may also require you to roll for both benefits and shortcomings instead of choose, to enforce the randomness of the genetic lottery.| Ladder | Description | Key Abilitio |
