We have a history of Hypergonadism, OCD and ADHD but my bloodline does not tolerate Vertigo and frowns on Color-blindness and Nostalgia.

You?

The ones that fuck up how the game looks I never go for, regular size is best, a good magic ability is preferable, I don't like Dragons, PAD is lovely, Spell Swords are generally cool, Barbarians and Assassin's also great. Was once into Hokages but now I've got my crits at max chance and max damage Hokages no longer seem cool.

Never bet on vertigo.

Vertigo is the only trait cannot tolerate. The "no foot pulse" trait is exceptionally rare in my bloodline, I think I've encountered it like 3 times in my playthrough. Baldness ratio is nearing 1:1.

Honestly? I just try and pick the best one. :p

Once you start getting into NG+3/4/5/etc, Liches with Crow Storm are tremendously useful. The biggest drawback of that spell is that it needs a lot of MP to cast, but by that point you've (probably) got a huge starting mana pool, your magic damage has been upgraded (so you don't need to cast it as many times), and you've got enough magic drain/vampirism to keeps your MP stocked almost indefinitely.

YOLO
