Balance & Feedback
Some thoughts of my own are:

- I want to keep the bonuses "small" and the cost in the ruler designer similarly... eventually some may turn into trait tracks with experience gained over time

- there will also be the addition of some 10/20pt types with more "oomph" to them, think a job they may have had in the past VS something about their place in society


While I'm pretty happy with the Literate icon, I'm not with Street Smart. Initially I had 2 dice to represent it, one showing it had a "6" on all sides, but the image was too textured and 3 dimensional and so didn't match the games style/aesthetic.

I don't know why literacy would lower your intrigue. If anything, the ability to read and write should improve your ability to pull a fast one, especially against those without basic literacy.

The original iteration of it was moreso leaning into the idea of that they were more of a student/apprentice type of thing, that they had their head stuck in books and weren't outside.


It could have the -intrigue removed, but then for balance would need it's cost increased in the ruler designer, I think being literate should equal at least a +2 in learning VS just +1



Additionally it seems to be rarer, 5-20% to be "literate" and something that took quite a lot more of an investment in time/money to do, so the idea being it left less time "outside" and for the ability to do other things...

Perhaps a -1 to Martial would be more reflective of that
