Absent Minded

Value
Common, Moderate: 10 Points • Common, Strong: 15 Points
Description
This character is Forgetful of, or Easily Confused by, anything not related to what he is working on or focused on at the moment. Obviously, the classic absent-minded professor springs to mind. There are two basic levels to this Disadvantage. The 10 point version (Common, Moderate) means the character acts absent minded, but can remember routine occasions and things he does regularly (like bathing, eating, breathing, and such) without having to make an Ego Roll. The 15 point version (Common, Strong) would normally mean that the character would have to make an Ego Roll to remember those sort of basic things without some sort of external reminder.Alternately, a GM could treat the Common, Strong version in such a way that the character would only have to make an Ego Roll to remember non-regular occurrences, such as delivering a telephone message to someone or when precisely it was that they were getting married that afternoon.
