A lot of fun traits for inclusion in FIST. Many of them also include drawbacks or negative consequences for use, which provides balance and an opportunity for roleplay (e.g., What is the Blood Mage doing to harm themselves in order to enhance their attribute?). Overall, a nice addition, although it could stand some editing (as others noted).
PUNCH needs a different backronym, maybe Plausibly Unrelated Network of Combat Heroics? What it really stands for is new FIST traits including the long-awaited Mage, Pacifist, and Guy Who Looks Just Like Peter Lorre. OK, maybe not that last one, but it's a fun collection of traits that is definitely worth a look.
If anyone is looking for a follow-up project? A concordance of all the new traits from this jam and where they can be found sounds nifty to me, you can even code them by theme and genre… hmm.
Three pages of new traits. A little open ended in places, stat modifiers feel high compared to core book traits, but generally excellent. Could use another editorial pass.
