I'm converting a lot of old 3rd edition characters over to 4th for a new
campaign I'm running and I've run into a snag, one of many I expect. I'm relying
on the "Rules Update - 4th Edition.pdf" to make the jump with many characters
that I've used from other 3rd edition books and some of the translations just
don't work.

The PDF says that the 3rd Ed. trait "Sanctity" is now called "Above Suspicion"
which is, of course, not in the 4th Ed. rules or I wouldn't be writing about
this. Searching online as yielded ridiculous suggestions like "Honest Face"

Anyone got other suggestions? I hate using the new online boards.

That suggestion (which I've found at
<URL:http://forums.sjgames.com/showthread.php?t=19715>) is actually
suggesting that the perk may have been re-named during some revision
before publication, and the GURPS Update document wasn't updated
accordingly.

(I hate using them too.)

Does “Honest Face” behave mechanically the way you expect “Sanctity” to
work? In that case, re-name it yourself (per “New Advantages”, p. B117).

Choose “Above Suspicion” as the new name, if you like, or “Sanctity”.

I managed to get a friend with the old compendiums to track down the trait.
Apparently Honest Face is pretty close to Sanctity (which isn't what I thought
it was - been a long time....)

Thanks
