RE:P Poll: Skill/Trait for next update! (Patreon)

It's time for the second Red Embrace: Paradisus content poll--let's see which skills/traits will show up next month!

As a brief refresher, skills are passive/active abilities that let you gain insights, interact with the environment, and achieve quest goals. Examples include picking locks, tracking down a character, seducing someone, stealing their lunch money, etc.

(Below: the skill selection screen)

Traits, on the other hand, are personality/background facets of your character. They determine how your character thinks/feels about their situation, their background, and how other characters respond to them. Examples include flying into a rage at an insult, being able to flirt aggressively, always remaining stoically silent, and acting gleefully eccentric.

As you can see from the screenshots, only a limited number of skills/traits have been introduced thus far. So let's decide what the next new skill + trait implementation will be!

Here are the current options (both the skill + trait will be implemented if picked):

Option 1: Iron Diplomacy + True Thespian

• [Skill] Iron Diplomacy: Threaten and intimidate people who might not share your point of view
• [Trait] True Thespian: Be extremely theatrical and dramatic, move (some) people to tears, channel your acting chops for sticky situations

Option 2: Illusive Web + Malicious

• [Skill] Illusive Web: Telling and seeing through lies, deceit
• [Trait] Malicious: Commit villainous acts, both petty mischief and larger havoc; essentially be a little shit (or a big shit)

Option 3: Biophile + Brightside

• [Skill] Biophile: Skill in biology, anatomy, and medicine; bond with animals and nourish plants
• [Trait] Brightside: Determined optimism, seeing a spark of hope in every situation, finding light in the darkest places

Choose your favorite pair! Fear not, the ones that don't win will still show up later eventually! :) (Poll ends in 3 days)
