Long Hair
You have long luscious locks, and while they get in the way sometimes, they can be deadly.
Benefit: While your hair is in a ponytail, braid or other similar thing, you can wield a Hairblade as an off-hand weapon that doesn't take up a hand. If you have this trait and are proficient with a Dagger, you are also considered proficient with the Hairblade.
Your luscious hair also gives you a +2 bonus on social checks (Diplomacy, Intimidate, Handle Animal, Bluff, Gather Information, Wild Empathy) if it can be seen, due to it being alluring, distracting, or intimidating.
Drawback: When you fail a Dexterity-based check, be it a Dex skill, Reflex save or Dex check, you suffer a -2 penalty on those checks, and on Spot and Search checks, until you fix your hair as a standard action. If you have a Hairblade equipped and you roll a 1 on a Dex skill, Reflex save or Dex check, you damage yourself with the blade. Additionally, your hair is rather recognizable and gives you a -2 penalty on Disguise checks.
Special: Must be a race that possesses hair on their head, such as most humanoid races.
Roleplaying Ideas: You may be a little vain because of your hair, refusing to get it wet or dirty, or to cut it. It may also be a cultural thing, keeping long hair, and cutting it only in honor of a lost loved one or tribe member, as a sign of mourning.
