What Unknown Variable said. I would like to think my
players are responsible enough to not wreck the game
with overt weirdness.

I think the premise of personal accountability leads
me to believe that the more power weirdness you stack
on your character the more he gets to roll those
stress gauges. Technically it is possible to be a
Adept, Avatar, and Thaumaturge if you want to have
crappy skills everywhere else and want to risk a taboo
here or there. Besides you still get the same amount
of xp to spend among three sorcery types instead of
one.

Yeah, but a secret is a secret regardless. Besides I'm
sure crypts can create worse secrets a la Jack the
Ripper or creating one's own special hate group.
