Wastrel: This character was the local drunk or junkie and has worn out their welcome. While they might have come from a good family, some calamity, betrayal, or criminal act on either their part, or committed against them, saw them fall into despair and oblivion. Prior to game play, this person’s priority in life centered on the booze bottle, drug pipe, or handful of mutant narcotics.

Besides being the local drunk or addict, this character was also likely a petty criminal, prostitute, or compulsive gambler and card cheat. The amount of trouble this troublemaker caused in their home town — and is still likely to cause should the chance arise to make a big score, splurge their earnings on hookers, drugs, alcohol and cards — is 67% likely to have followed them into their new life as a digger, mercenary or other profession.
