New perks

Underestimated

Basically, if they don't have any reason to think otherwise, you're underestimated. This has downsides, and in real life this would be a Quirk. However, in an adventure scenario, like RPGs this is an advantage.

Think of a ship's cook who happens to be a highly decorated combat veteran with a bad attitude towards authority. The average crook would assume he's a pushover because "he's just a cook." The brilliant academic who can't play the political games to gain tenure, the mousey young woman who is a brilliant performer, the teenager in the heavy metal band t-shirt who is an engineering genius, are all examples of this pattern.

This perk is about the advantage of surprise. Once the surprise happens a few times the perk will be lost. Similarly, in a very realistic campaign where this is a Quirk, it is also lost after a couple of surprise reveals. But the surprise reveals are less likely to happen.
