These don't exist in-game, although perhaps they were meant to at one point.  They are present on Chruker's: http://games.chruker.dk/eve_online/inventory.php?category_id=14  Regardless, they provide some interesting options for character ideas, insight, and development, don't you think?

Very interesting!

I love these two:
Monophobia    Dies if he doesn't dock at a station every 60 mins.   
Taphephobia     If Structure damage is >25% then he ejects capsule.   

Those would be awesome. :D

Well, I can see why those weren't included in the game...they're rather horribly unbalanced.

Also newbies wouldn't know WTF those mean. Like that when I started Seriphyn, and attributes.

Why they dumbed down the character creation process I imagine.

How is it dumbed down? They've actually added choices but streamlined the process of choosing them.

I think Seriphyn was referring to how race and bloodline used to affect your "bonus" attributes (i.e., Amarr / True Amarr gave you awesome willpower, but terribad charisma) and background / starting school / specialization would effect your starting skills, meaning you could accidentally gimp your 'toon horribly without realizing you were doing so (for instance, rolling a military toon and then finding out all your attributes are wrong).

These unincluded attributes are a bit more self-explanatory, although some of that is because I've been playing a while now - things like "Equipment duration" and "shield seeping" make sense to me now because I've encountered them in game.



Actually, the most interesting thing for me is some of the abandoned / never-introduced features they hint at - for instance, implants taking time to install, formations granting bonuses to certain aspects of a fight, or stargates having a cost of some kind to use.
