Default Half breed disadvantages clarification needed..

Our group is divided on this issue.

If a player is a half breed of a single race and received none of its disadvantages; what exactly counts as a disadvantage? There are the obvious ones like the monsters getting a +4 against you but they're trying to use it to dodge curses and it doesn't make sense. For example a half breed Changling was hit by a curse that only effects Changelings. They ignored it and made the player discard their card for wasting it against them. Others argued that they are still a changeling and it should have effected them.

Disadvantages include bonuses to Monsters against a Race, Bad Stuff that would negatively impact a Race, Curse effects that might affect a Race specifically, and the inability to use Items excluded from use by a Race.

I asked this previously and don't think I got an answer. Would this also negate an Outlaw's 'Price On Yer Head'?

I'd say no. The loss of the level has nothing to do with your Class.

So, just to be absolutely sure, a curse that states "Werewolves go down a level" would not effect a half-breed Werewolf.

Correct. Such a Curse would not affect a Half-Breed Werewolf.
