I suppose there'd have to be some way to penalise warriors of unbalanced aspect; metabolism and strength sort of support each other, and metabolism would probably cause all sorts of problems without a hefty helping of Grace endowments. (That's why I didn't suggest a Dex bonus from Met, although a haste bonus would probably be a good idea. What is it, +2AC per haste?)These are oriented towards high Runelords. A single endowment character is probably just enjoying the benefits of a magic item, as discussed previously, but to do Raj Ahten you'd want these.Grace: Buffs up DEX. Don't apply this bonus to missile weapon attacks or initiative checks. Do apply it to AC and all relevant skill checks.Penalties: None.Synergy: Metabolism does 1 damage per action for every increment faster you are than your Grace (if you have 1000 Met but only 10 Grace, you take 2hp every time you swing your sword).Wits: Buffs up WIS. Furthermore, with the incredible power of recall this gives you, you can search locations (with spot or listen) after you've left them; apply the penalties for time under the Track feat or something.Penalties/Synergies: None, until you lose your dedicates... at which point you take a major hit to memory and skills. Probably an XP drain, too.</blockquote>
