I did something unusual with talents that I think worked out well and others might find interesting: I use them as 'gate keepers' for characters occupying high status roles, like knighthood or membership in the nobility. There is a 'Gentry' talent that means you a member of a family that holds land in exchange for fealty to some local noble, and 'Noble' talent means you are a member of a family that rules a barony or larger territory and owes fealty only to a king or other higher ranking noble.
