I have a question about the topic Character Generation Form...

I don't understand why there is a numerical value for that Special Characteristics. I mean, aren't we using a full interpretative roleplaying ruleset? If that's the case, then we don't need values to demonstrate that Characteristics...

For example: Let's assume 50 as value for the Characteristics of the regular healthy human. If you are real strong, you wouldn't need to put there "Strength 75", you could say "He/She can lift a small car using all his/her strength". In my humble opinion, that would include some dramaticity in the character profile.

I played once in a pure interpretative ruleset (no dice rolling, never ever), and I got to admit it, that was the coolest game I had in all my life!

Well, suggestion made. Now I can rest a bit... C'ya!

Thanks for the question. Yes this form is different than what people are use to. The percentile numbers are from Dungeons and Dragons. I decided to try a different form to see how people would respond.

I have been working on a second form that I'm going to have available shortly. As this guild grows some members will either use the more traditional form or give the "dice rolling" one a try.
