You were planning to have a 15 year old magical girl kill Witches by drinking them under the table!? It's original, at least.

Take the shirt, without wearing it. Await the Return of Lucky, and reward him with his loot when possible.

Examine sapphire power badge, and assign both points to lowest stat.

Hmm... Would it be possible to get a trait that'd give me a bonus when I kill someone in the name of justice(or, in self defense, I guess. But justice sounds better), but subtracts from an attribute when I kill someone without provocation?
That sounds like a nice idea. The only question is, how would I objectively determine when such a thing is?

Threaten him over the shirt, but don't actually fight for it. Hand it over if it leads to a fight. (I don't care all that much about the shirt, so feel free to have it.)

Since I'd really like to add more traits, I'll add something like this to the OP. I'll call it "Just".

Name: Charles McGuffin
Apperance: A wild, adventurous man in his 30's. Wears suspenders and has aviator goggles with a leather cap (safety first!)
Background: Charles was raised as a proper victorian-era gentleman at 18 he began working with gears, wings, steam, and other contraptions. multiple failed attempts at flying were rewarded one day as his (now known as steampunkish) flying contraption took off. 15 seconds into the ride he disappeared and wound up where ever the heck we all are now.

Agi:8
Clv:15
Dex:12
Lor:13
Luk:10
Per:10
Str:9
Tuf:7

Trait: None. Unless Mechanics Eye gets approved

I came up with three new trait ideas, if you're still looking:

Undead (Or maybe Vampire):
Every few turns, for example 3, an Undead goes without killing, they lose a skill point. However, they gain extra skill points from kills and every kill all the points they lost are restored.

Guardian:
A Guardian is assigned to a random player at spawn. The guardian will lose several skill points if that player dies, but get extra points for protecting their target.

Soul Linked:
A step up from guardian. When two people who pick Soul Linked spawn, they are linked. From this point, their skill points are linked. If one gains a skill point, they both do, if one loses a skill point, they both do, but if one dies they both will die.

Another trait idea.

Collector - Bonus skill points are based solely on how much loot they have. The more loot they have in their possession the more skill points they have, but if they lose their loot, they lose their skill points too.

Another one:

Make Rap, Not War: Killing people has no effect on you, but you are unaffected by losing a rap battle.
