The fact that his STR stayed stable or even grew a bit as he aged, while his END kept dropping, showed he was juicing far more than was healthy for him!The Army Lt Colonel with INT 3 and EDU 9 was clearly an absolute stickler for the rules, having memorised every handbook and passed every exam but having no initiative at all.Also, I was wrong in my earlier thread: we have two PCs injured by just-failed Survival checks. One was a Noble, whose skills were Bribery and Gambling an who started with a Type Y Yacht. Obviously he had won the Yacht in a card game, and then been beaten to within an inch of his life by the people he won it from ! (Who also turned up as NPCs in our first session.)Etc.I hope I've made sense!</blockquote>
