My Dependence is also my Susceptibility

I like challenging characters to play. I was thinking about the nasty combination of needing something that also hurt you. I was specifically thinking about a Treant-Troll crossbreed character who needed sunlight but was also hurt by it, but I'm not sure how to model such a thing.

 

Thoughts?

Well obviously your character doesn't turn to stone in the sunlight or he (it?) would have a darn short career as an adventurer. So the question is what does happen to him?

 

I would give him Dependence on sunlight per usual rules. Then give him a Susc. 3d6 Suppress vs. STN or STR or whatever while in sunlight. That way he still has to stand outside to photosynthesize but he won't do it longer than he has to.
