"Nobody's Fool" Trait from Eureka: Investigative Urban Fantasy! Every investigator has 3-6 Traits! By the way, everyone should watch Shaft (1971). The critical response to this movie actually played a major role in bringing the term "swag" into mainstream culture, referring to the titular character's attitude and mannerisms.

Before Shaft (1971), black males in American film were almost exclusively allowed to be portrayed as extremely polite and subordinate, even if they were protagonists. John Shaft however, as portrayed in Shaft (1971) by actor Richard Roundtree, was bold, clever, smooth, and unapologetically macho. Having seen it recently, this is actually one of my favorite movies ever, and really had a Eureka feel to it.

Nobody’s Fool || You don’t lean on this investigator. Once per Scene, they gain 2 Investigation Points whenever they refuse to acknowledge a threat, refuse to “bend the knee,” or respond to mockery with a cutting comeback.

D’Angelo, Richard Roundtree, and Chadwick Boseman are among the Black men we’ve lost to gastrointestinal cancers such as colon and pancreatic cancer. These diseases are taking too many of our icons. Please get regular screenings
