If a 1 is rolled, then the revolver is out of ammo, and the pumpshotgun misses.

Sweet, about time. I've been waiting for someone to really contribute to this thread. I also posted it over at BGG and no one replied, period.

I think most of these are really good, there are a couple that I think we could name better. I'll report back with some suggestions soon, then move them to the front page of this thread.

This would be too similar to the jock's ability already.

I suggest changing "weigthlifter" to "backpacker".

One question though: How do you use these abilities on your heroes? Can all players pick (all?) the abilities at random or are some abilities assigned to certain heroes?

You have to role play it. You could pick the ones you want to choose from, assign them a number then roll a die and each character gets the assigned ability. The best thing to do is decide on the scenario and which ability will help "balance" out the game. Some times I'll be in mid game and wish I had a specific ability so it's good to have them handy and try them on the spot to get a better idea when/where they work best.
