===Negative Status Traits===
Aberrant (negative) - The IA considers you a failure, someone who cannot be trusted to live up to her
word and cannot be relied upon.
* Censure: While you carry the Aberrant negative status, you suffer the greater status ban and must wear a visible sign of your failure at all times. This badge of dishonor is chosen by the person punishing you with this status and may range from wearing a specific item, to maintaining a physical alteration such as the loss of a finger, or having the word “failure” tattooed across your forehead. This status lasts for two games or one month, whichever is longer.
* Punishment: If a character with the Aberrant negative status is found to break the censure of this status, she gains the additional negative status trait Warned, and the one month/two game duration of Aberrant is reset.

'''Ribald''' - You’ve committed a minor offense against the Sect, enough to be scolded, but not so much as to be severely censured. Regardless of the severity, this has been seen as a hindrance to the Alliance. You should learn from your mistakes, or you will be punished more harshly.
* Censure: All fleeting status traits you possess are expended without effect. Fleeting traits lost in this manner are lost temporarily and return at the end of the game session. You cannot gain any further fleeting status while under this effect. The Ribald trait lasts only for the night in which you are given the status.
* Punishment: If you receive a second Ribald, this negative status automatically upgrades to Warned. Further, while you hold the Ribald status and the Warned status as a result of a second Ribald, your maximum Willpower is reduced by 1. Once the Warned status is removed, your Willpower returns to normal.
