Hunter Flaws


Hunter flaws refer to inborn disabilities, problems, or aversions that are exhibited only the Imbued, or rarely by other, more mortal types of supernatural hunters. They generally represent problems or struggles unique to them because of their combination of dangerous lifestyle and mundane origins and limitations.

Some hunter flaws are even more specific, being most often manifested only by members of a specific creed or organization, although it is not always certain whether it is impossible for other hunters to have these flaws or simply very, very unusual.
