A little more about what we need. Most of these are fairly innocuous - some not so much. You never know who's in secret communication with shady types, you never know who's in the grip of their morphine habit. If you thinking of something like being an Agent, a supernatural, Something That Should Not Be, or anything like that, for goodness sake don't put it right out on your character sheet. These things are SECRET.

Really Exiting Things in the bottom-most list can often be combined with other things. You can be as corrupt as possible. Things we're especially looking for feature an asterisk (*). You may only go so high in good fortune, but there's no limit at all to how low.
