Hindrance: Masochist

Value:
6

Description:
Your character likes pain, either consciously or subconsciously. They like it on some level, and they embrace it in the name of whatever purpose they serve. They act more reckless than most others, often for reasons that aren’t necessarily the brightest. This isn’t really a good thing for them in the long run, but it keeps them going when many others wouldn’t be able to continue. When injured, these ponies are not subject to endurance rolls that normally come with physical actions whilst injured. This comes at a heavy price for them, however; the lack of care with which they treat their wounds leads them to be much more difficult to heal. All methods that restore body points only restore half as many, and when resting to recover from wounds they recover at half the normal rate. Incidentally, most doctors hate masochistic patients. If the doctor knows of their patient’s reckless behavior, they can expect a tongue lashing the next time they waltz into the medical ward with their leg dangling by a thread.
