I think the depressed trait makes sense in character for this option, since he lost his entire family and all that. It also seems to make things interesting narratively, and in the end will make our character stronger, as sooner or later we'll probably lose it and our starting traits and stats would be good. Anyway, it's far from a deal breaker imo.

Well for me, any Trait that has the Potential for an Instant Game-Over, no matter how small, is just too big a risk.

That being said, I would be fine if the currently leading Plan wins. But I reserve me the right to say 'I told you so' if it blows up in our Faces.

True, that's the other side of the Coin. But Viserys was never depressed and, at his starting Time, still relatively well together. It wasn't that hard to keep him sane. Besides, I'm not someone to count on a great Development like this happening twice.

Fair enough, but the chance is less than one percent, which is not very statistically significant. There is probably more of a chance we die fighting the Ghiscari or to other factors than to the trait. Anyway, I like the character itself, and think the trait makes him more fleshed out, but that's my opinion.
 
Hmm, just putting down another plan...

[] Plan Master of Most
Fighting: Master -7
Dragon: Legendary -10
Diplomat: Master -7
Command: Master -7
Stewardship: Master -7
Schemer: Competent -1
Patient -4
Ambitious +5
Dragon Heart -6
Lustful +1
Greedy +1
Envious +1
Proud +3
Cruel +1
Shy +2
Only One Survived +15
Not married +10

Combat30 + 5 + 5 (?) + 10 = +50
Dragon Knowledge50 + 5 + 30 = +85
Diplomat30 + 5 + 5 - 10 - 10 = +20
Command30 + 5 + 5 = +40
Stewardship30 + 5 + 10 = +45
Schemer0 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 10 = +25
Stressdecreases much faster; special actions to lower it unlocked
Training+10
Freehold viewUpstart and Scapegoat; protect your family around them; not amused by demands for more money; mixed about pride
Family & Fame+15
Misc.Can torture; Unknown Effect (Dragon Hearted)

@Magoose do Cynical and Deceitful just come up with +/- 0 or do they just lack their cost right now?
 
A depressed dragon rider, who is lucky, has a more intimate connection to their dragon and fighting in a war against harpies and magic? What could go wrong?

That sounds Cliche... Very Cliche.

It might work.

Edit: I've now written three of the Five... The ruination of the family.

If you know your Roman history, you could probably see the similarities to a certain... famous historical figure... in there.
