He was not stupid, so it doesn't seem that he deserves to simply have a low Int, au contraire he was very skillful; he wasn't either unperceptive of the surrounding, so low Wis doesn't satisfy me either. Basically he was an excellent veteran pilot, who was able to perform hazardous manoeuvres probably thanks to his "crazyness" and lack of fear for the consequences. He was anyway paranoid, typically in every episode of the series he was obsessed by a different thing: one day he had an invisible pet to talk with, the next day he was scared to death by sandwiches, another day he might have believed to be the reincarnation of some famous person of the past, and so on.I think it could make for a nice PC to have fun with, but I have no idea at the moment about how to adjust his stats to represent it. It is also possible that I shouldn't adjust anything at all...</blockquote>
