Special Traits

There are two types of special traits in Daggerfall: Special Advantages and Special Disadvantages (from here on out referred to as Advantages and Disadvantages respectively). Advantages help the player out by offering immunities, resistances, etc., but they come at a price; they make the character level up slower. Disadvantages are the opposite of advantages; they hinder the character (critical weaknesses, forbidden weaponry, etc.) but allow the character to level up faster.
