Deaf

Can only be taken at level 1, must be a race which "hears" in the traditional biological manner

You have lost the ability to hear. This may have been from birth, or may have developed over time. Sometimes hearing loss is caused by exposure to traumatic noise. Whatever the case, you can't hear anything ever. Character is constantly affected by the deafened condition.   FLAW: This is a flaw feat. At your DM's discretion, you may take this feat at level 1. If you do, you may also gain a feat, or increase two of ability scores by +1 (or one by +2).
