A Bestial nature doesn't mean that a SS takes a crap wherever it is
and the need hits..Just as any dog can be well behaved in most every
situation sometimes the urge will strike and they just cannot keep
out of the trash..Or something more like they are more likely to go
overboard when in hand to hand combat..Afterall a wolf or bear
doesn't fight for fun they fight for life..

Not if I were the GM..A bestial nature would be genetic not something
you can simply get rid of..THink more like Wolverine from the
X-men..THe comics not the cartoon..

Not a lot of people..the rules..Now if you want to create a house
rule..go for it..But leave me out of any discusion about it..

Now if you want something to calm the critter down..try mood altering
drugs..Make them very adictive..I personally don't like uing drugs in
my game..but this could be an easy answer for you..This would also
mesh better with the brainwashing stuff..make the drug long lasting
and now that the SS finds itself away from the source you have
withdrawl problems to contend with as well...
