Doesn't Bleep: you can say anything you like without getting censored. Compare Less Bleep, with which you are allowed to say certain words without being censored ("That's our word!")

PSI Static: you have the ability to distort measures of pressure. Using this ability around appropriate equipment can give others a -4 to attempts to predict changes in weather and use scuba gear.

Unhazeable: any time you join an organization, you are immediately accepted as a full member, avoiding any awkward period as "the new guy"

Degeneration: no matter how careful or pure the intents of the character, their clothes constantly malfunction just as large groups of people come into view.

Inmate Attack: once per adventure/per level the gm will put you in a great tactical position to surprise attack your enemies when they are at their weakest (ie, going to the bathroom, reaching for some soap in a community shower, etc.).

Night Mission: you are one with the night and get a +1 bonus to any skill roll at night.

Alfliction: your alien or bizarre physiology does not cause any reaction penalty ( this doesn't mean your alien odious personal habits don't cause a penalty however).

Social Regird

Enhanced Cracking - You can crack software twice as efficient, critical failure is always just a standard failure for you.

Beardlessness - You do not grow beard. This is an advantage/disadvantage, depending on the social norm of the society.

Funslinger - As Gunslinger, but with jokes. You can make perfect jokes at any possible occasions, even if it would be REALLY awkward to do so. People laugh at your jokes regardless of how lame they would actually be.

Lego Immunity - negative effects from lego blocks, either stepping on them or being obsessed by their awesomeness, doesn't work on you.

Mess Sleep - This is a disadvantage. Your sleeping habits are messy. You drool, rummage around and often fall from bed/tree due to your uneasy sleeping. It is a common occurrence you wet your bed.

Fighting Calculator - You may use calculators for all sorts of fighting purposes - throwing, impaling, cutting. No one knows how exactly you do it, but your combat prowess with calculators is unmatched.

Mana Camper - you are able to form camps out of pure mana. Concentrate for 3d seconds and you may create a full, functionable camp, with tents, cooking pot and everything needed for a good, cosy camp.

Muppet - as per Puppet, but it only works if Ally is in fact, a Muppet.

Rapid Dealing - This is immensely useful in synthesis with Gambling skill. You may deal cards to other players as a free action (as fast draw).

Shaveshifting - you can change your facial hair style at any point during the session, depending on the level of Shaveshifting. 15 points for once per session, 30 for 2, etc.

Signature Fear - Your reaction when frightened is as if you had a Trademark, but limited only to the way you act when you are afraid and horrified by something.

Special Report - Any time you turn on a TV, you always luckily get to see a special report depicting the next clue you might find useful in order to solve whatever task is set upon you.

Vampiric Kite - This is an alternative to Signature Gear. You possess a magical kite that can drain life out of other kites, rendering them useless and incapable of flying, whereas your kite becomes more adept at it.

Larp - As Warp, but you may only do this during larping.

Weapon Mister - Whenever someone needs a good piece of advice regarding weapons, they turn to you. Since you are THE Weapon Mister.

Xena-Adaptability - You adapt to any kind of situation as Xena, the Warrior Princess would. HAYAYAYAYAYAAAA

Fight Vision: You always know when a fight is going to start. You cannot be attacked by surprise, though depending on the skills and attack methods of the enemy in question you may not be able to ready your weapons in time.

Knight Vision: You can recognize a knight as such on sight regardless of how well disguises himself.

Smite Vision: You can tell at a glance if a monster will be susceptible to Advantages such as Higher Purpose(Slay X), True Faith, or Innate Attacks with Accessibility(Only On Monster Type X). This does not confer knowledge of what class of monster you are dealing with if you lack Advantages which are limited to effecting it, nor of other classifications it falls under if it is multi-typed (Undead Slime, Eldritch Demon, Dire Wolf Golem, and so on).
