Door Defender: You always parry whenever you approach a door or similar opening.

So far, my only custom perk is "can back kick using brawling instead of Karate." I mean really, should a CENTAUR need formal martial arts training to use a back kick?

I don't think they need a perk at all. They can't kick to the front (a GURPS kick is done with the hindlegs.)

True, but Buns of Steel was already taken ...

This may have been done before, but:

Music Man

Whenever you sing, appropriate music plays in the background. This music can be heard by anyone who is listening to you, but is not really there and will not be picked up by recording devices.

In The Music Man, Harold Hill probably had Affliction: (this perk). A lot of musical movie characters have it too.

Skimpy Safety
All attacks targeted against your hit locations which are not protected by any DR suffer an additional -1 to hit. This has no effect on attacks which do not specify a hit location, including ones against random hit locations.

That would be a great help for Chain Mail Bikini warriors.

I love it, but I feel like it might be a little more than a perk.

How about if it was limited to a group of hit locations (like limbs, body or head) or only against certain attacks (like ranged attacks)?

That might do it. I'm really only going by gut check here, I'd be interested in getting some other opinions. I also think that it should count against random hit locations, it seems in genre that random arrows and shrapnel should mysteriously hit only the armor.

Perhaps it's just an Extra Option perk for Bullet Proof Nudity?
