The GURPS Basic Set Vol 1: Characters, on page 144 says:
Missing Digit
-2 or -5 points
You are missing a finger or thumb.Missing Finger: Gives -1 DX with that hand (only). -2 points.Missing Thumb: Gives -5 DX with that hand (only). -5 points.
I know a couple of people missing a finger who don't appear to be affected by it at all.
Some races are depicted with fewer fingers than humans and aren't giving this disad.
It hit me that if it's not affecting you, you don't rate the points even if you don't have a finger where it should be!
Take the -1 for the quirk and make note your left pinky is gone. No DX penalty, but you might get some social stuff from people going, "where's your pinky?"
I've met a couple of people who are REALLY freaked out by a missing digit too. They were physically sick from the person who was missing that right ring finger. <-- That missing finger is a warning about lathes and jewelry, by the way.
