No, I've looked everywhere for it, but I just can't find it. If I do, I'll sure as hell run a game on the forums.

So you had a Jynxian type physique in mind, then?

I think the only way your gonna find it is getting a used copy somwhere. I actually own a copy. I really liked what they did with the chaosium base system. They also had stats for a number of the races.

Actually I was going for the bottom end of the height and weight scales. I wasn't actually trying for a Jynxian. I think the scales that they have for female humans don't quite fit right. I think I will rethink her height and weight. I just knew what you were refering to.

I think I'll go with 1.27 m and 35 kg.

Much less round, 4 foot 2, 77 pounds, but that is still very much over weight, for someone of that height. I'm 5'2" and 86 pounds, and I'm not too thin, or over-weight or anything, I'm about right. A girl who is 4'2 would be around 40-50 lbs, roughly 22.7 kilograms, buts that the size of an adolescant, and their weigh fluctuates a bit on growth spurts.

What body type are you shooting for? at that height and weight, it could be one of two things, Yoda eating an x-wing, or Arnold Schwartzanegar muscles on a 9 year old.

Actually, according to a standard BMI (Body Mass Indicator) 5'2" & 86 lbs. gives a BMI of 15.7. 4'2" & 77 lbs. gives a BMI of 21.7. The normal weight range is a BMI of 18.5 to 24.9. This puts my character at the middle of the normal range and you are in the under weight category. These numbers are for adults. Children under 18 use different tables.

 

[Super Girl]

hmm, I don't feel under weight, don't know if thats a good thing or not, I'm healthy, so I don't think its a problem.

edit: oops, that was a typo, I'm 96, not 86, I knew I wasn't that under weight, my real BMI is 17.6, just a touch under, but like I said, I'm healthy, and not a stick figure.

 

[Angcuru]

This would be a really funny in-character discussion.

 

[Angcuru]

I'm really liking the way you guys are playing this out so far.

Aaaand we have an update to the story hour.

 

[Angcuru]

Just exchanged some e-mails with POL. Apparently there was some confusion between us over submitting his character's stats. He'll be joining the IG thread later tonight if all goes well.

Attached is a rough map showing the layout of the settlement. Fear my leet clip-art skills.

 

[Guest 11456]

So we are approaching from the northwest? Is that gate open or closed?

 

[Angcuru]

Yes, you are approaching from the northwest. The gate is currently open. It's a portcullis design, so the wall sentries can close it quickly by pulling a simple lever.
