Starting character may take as many different flaws as they wish, but only 5 of which give bonus XP during character creation. Also, flaws follow the same cumulative nature that traits do with purchacing.

To buy off a trait, you must spend twice the amount of XP it is worth. You may buy off traits all at once or slowly reduce them level by level.
