			== Disadvantages ==
			* '''Alcoholism''': roll versus Will any time you are in the presence of alcohol. A failed roll results in a binge lasting 2d hours, followed by a hangover. While on a binge, expect sudden mood swings.
			* '''Compulsive Carousing''': Once per day, you must seek out a social gathering and crash it if necessary. You never refuse a social drink (or any other substance).

''Not a house rule, just a summary of alcohol rules B439-440...''

== Getting Drunk ==
If you drink more that ST/4 drinks in an hour:
* roll against ST or Carousing, modified by:
** -1 per drink beyond ST/4 that hour
** -2 for an empty stomach
** +1 if you just ate
** +2 for Alcohol Tolerance Perk
** -2 for Alcohol Intolerance Quirk

A failure moves you down the line of drunk afflictions (sober -> tipsy -> drunk -> unconscious -> coma).
* '''Critical Failure'' drops you two levels.
* If are about to move into Unconscious or Coma, make an unmodified HT roll:
** Success means you VOMIT (affliction: Retching)
** Failure means you pass out AND vomit (Affliction: Choking)

'''Hangovers''' begin 1d hours later (or upon awakening) on a failed HT roll, modified by:
* -2 if you are Drunk
* -4 if you are Unconscious

The hangover lasts as many hours as your '''margin of failure''', and causes the Moderate Pain and Low Pain Threshold.

== Alcohol-Related Afflictions ==
* '''Tipsy''': -1 to DX and IQ, -2 to self control rolls (except Cowardice), Shyness reduced by 1 level.
* '''Drunk''': -2 to DX and IQ, -4 to self control, Shyness reduced 2 level.
* '''Retching''': -5 to DX, IQ, Per, all Concentrates fail, lose 1 FP (and your lunch)
* '''Choking''': Suffocation: without assistance, lose 1FP/second, lose consciousness at 0, and you DIE in 4 minutes. (B436-437)
* '''Moderate Pain''' (from hangover): -2 to DX, IQ, skill, and self-control rolls. (halved or doubled if you have High/Low Pain Threshold)
