Character Flaws

So character flaws, they make and break the originality of a character. Makes them stand out from the crowd, makes them unique and interesting to play. I've been wondering for a time what kind of flaws people often focus on when making their characters and what are their fav flaws to see in character and the ones they dislike the most.

Myself I dislike seeing people stating their character simple drinks a bit and smokes a bit being their character's major flaw lol that not a flaw that’s just a normal social action lol. Also character who are really nice but can have a terrible temper, I myself play this as a flaw as I say below but I make sure my character’s crap at getting his point over which makes more scenes for someone who’s so loveable they could rarely do nothing wrong lol


I myself normally focus on the whole defensive character, who in fact often watches from a far, bunches his fists and measuring up the person to see if he could take him in a fight but if any conflict were to happen he would feel terribly shaky and ill due to nerves and possibly be sick with worry after any soft of physical scrap how ever minor.

I also like having character who hold some responsibility who are often nice and caring blah, blah, blah but when it comes to having to tell someone off, it never turns out right and becomes more like a heated rant which goes out of hands and becomes very embracement lol.

So lets here you thought people :D

I like pitiful, squirming characters, similar to like the geekiest pocket-protector nerd at yer high school.

But my favorite flaw has got to be the 'open mouth, insert foot' social retardation flaw. Fun as hell to play.

I've still yet to come across my favorite flaw. I like to come up with them as I go.

But I do enjoy limiting my character in various degrees. through environmental means such as Lizbeth has, sh can't show her face a lot and has to stay within certain areas.

Diseases, are pretty fun, Although the MDV that Varetine has isn't that limiting, but she's an interesting character to play. She's been weakened by choices she'd made and has to dig her way out of that pit. Not to mention she's disorganized.

I've other's i just can't think of them now.
