Change a letter, change the disadvantage
Inspired by the parallel "advantage" thread. A couple to get everyone started.
Unlackiness: You have an anti-Talent with skills related to domestic service such as Housekeeping, Savoir-Faire (Servant), Sewing and Cooking. Alternatively, Unlackiness: Minions inherently distrust you. You have a -5 on any roll to attract a hireling. Bad Fight: The opposite of Combat Reflexes. You are caught by surprise in any but the most obvious assault, and always go last in a turn. Recommended only for NPC mooks. Barserk: You have an uncontrollable tendency to start tavern fights.

One Peg: One of your legs has been replaced by a wooden peg. (cf. No Pegs)
Assent-Mindedness: You readily agree to suggestions from others, no matter how silly. Bad Trip: You take a -3 penalty on rolls to resist the side effects of recreational drugs. Pestial: You are really annoying. Floodlust: You must roll against Will any time the opportunity to thoroughly soak something comes up. Cannot Yearn: You want for nothing. Defness: You are really hip, man. Braining: Once per day, at a specific time – sunrise, noon, sunset, midnight, etc. – you take 1 IQ of damage. Dead: You're dead. Extra Bleep: A bleeping noise manifests from nowhere any time you attempt to swear. (cf. Bleepy) Breed: Any time your character has sex, there is a higher than normal chance that a pregnancy will result. Haziness: You have difficulty recalling details of anything you have seen. On the Ledge: Whenever an opportunity to walk, stand or drive next to a precipice appears, you must make a self-control roll. Elfish: With a little light make-up and the right clothes, or sometimes even just the right lighting, you can pass as an elf. Elfless: You don't have an elf. This is only a disadvantage in settings where most people have elves! Mimesickness: Mimes make you sick. Brickster: You gain a bonus on rolls that involve constructing things out of bricks. |
