Good Natured

Good Natured is a Fallout, Fallout 2, Fallout Tactics and Lionheart Trait. You studied less-combative skills as you were growing up. Your combat skills start at a lower level, but other skills are substantially improved.
 * First Aid, Doctor, Speech and Barter get a +15% bonus. You get a -10% modifier to starting combat skills (Small Guns, Big Guns, Energy Weapons, Unarmed, Melee Weapons, and Throwing). This is a one-time bonus only. (Fallout 1, 2 & Tactics) This trait is useful, as it is unlikely for even a combat-oriented character to use more than 3 of these skills, and in all likelihood only 2. As such, 20% is "lost" while at least 45% (Speech, Barter and Doctor) is gained. In fallout 2, first aid is mostly useless as one can Wait indefinitely. This is not the case in fallout 1, and so in fallout 1 all 60% of this is useful.


 * Your combat skills start at a lower level, but Barter and healing rates are substantially improved. Barter gets a 25 point bonus. You also get a negative 5 point modifier to starting melee combat skills (One-Handed, Two-handed and Unarmed). This trait cannot be selected with Nasty Disposition. (Lionheart)
 * You're a friendly person and are hesitant to employ violence to solve problems. You have +2 to Medic, Persuasion, and Science. However, your combat sequence is -4. (J.E. Sawyer's Fallout RPG)
