How they hell does being crippled unbalance something? It just means
you're crippled, or in the other case, means you dug in your heels and did
well at school/training/whatever.
With Origins, do what you used to do in those "Choose your own Adventure"
books -- hold the (figurative) page so if you make a roll you don't like
you can go back and make another other. Not exactly what Origins was
intended for, but handy if you can't face the music.. ;)
