    Peter G:I'm going to try and delete my edit, and instead put it here as a comment. People who are world weary would also get skills related to that trauma. They will repress these skills until an appropiate trigger happens. Example: the trauma is war. suppress combat type skills. when triggered, they not only get their skills back, but get a bonus. the bonus balances their not normally being able to use the skills. Alternatively, instead of trigger and bonus, they have to have skills related to the trauma, and as a role playing item, don't want to use them.
