Stranger in a Strange Land
Social Condition
To be polite, your character sticks out in their current environment. Perhaps they are cybernetically enhanced among the Amish, modern soldiers in feudal Japan, or just have the wrong clothing in the wrong neighborhood. Either way, they are exceedingly easy to locate and it is obvious that they do not belong. They suffer a +2 Complication on all rolls to blend in, hide, or interact with locals. Should this Complication not be bought off, someone will take notice of the character, and trouble will soon catch up with them.
Time travel, anachronistic technology, space travel, dimensional shifts. Resolution
With effort, characters can engage in better disguises, adopt local clothing, or depending on the character perhaps even shapeshift themselves into appearing as they belong. This Condition will also fade naturally when removed from whatever environment it was necessary for. AKA

Perhaps you are an undead Kindred vampire from another world. A world where the population is subjugated and bow to your rule. A world encased in eternal night and ruled by your vampire god Vecna. Perhaps its a world devoid of water, covered in sand, where metal is rare and ceramic bits are the coin of the populace. However mortals and blood are now the coin the Kindred use. The cultures may be strange, races extinct for thousands of years walking the streets speaking obscure versions of a languages. What could possible be difficult about this?
