Real Life Stats

[Lorgrom]

We did this back in 1st edition (Str 18/00 Con 11 Dex 10 Int 14 Wis 18 Chr 15), and recently did it again in 3rd edition (Str 18 Con 11 Dex 10 Int 15 Wis 17-19 Chr 16).
Personaly I feel the Chr is a bit high (should be 14). Though the group says my way with the ladies easly shows my stat (silly peoples, yes both men and women are in the gameing group). As for the rest of the stats, I would tend to agree, we used the str tables to determin Str. Int was the result of a standard IQ test/10 (I consistently score 146-147). They rate my Wis so high cause I just seem to know things way before they happen (they would rate it lower say a 14-15 if we countied in psionics).

Now as for classes, I defently have always shown signs of at least 1 level in Barbarian (when I do get pissed, watchout things tend to not be there when I am done; took me forever to get basic english down; and I defently take less damage from physical things then most do). After that I would say somekind of Fighter/Warrior type of classes would be most of my levels. Though as said before if you added in psionics, then there are defently some levels there .

Quick hi-jack: What were the infant/child mortality rates for pre-renaissance Europe?

up to 50%. Pre-renaissance isn't much different from pre 20th century: In 1870, a Chicago child had a 50% chance of reaching the age 5.

Well, there is the question of whether you would have survived childhood without it...

Quick hi-jack: What were the infant/child mortality rates for pre-renaissance Europe?

I'm essentially giving a free version of the Great Fortitude feat. How many would not have survived without a free version of the Great Fortitude feat?

For the sake of playing the game, it was assumed I was one of those that survived.

I can't speak for anyone else, but I wouldn't dare give myself anything above a 15. 16 if I were feeling nice. Anyway, my Con has got to be my highest score, as I almost never get sick, remain pretty active, and have good endurance. I might have a 13 Int. My IQ isn't terribly high, but I participate in a lot of intellectual activities and generally don't pay much merit to tests anyway. Strength and Dex are probably 10s. Not terribly strong or agile, but I'm no oaf either. Wisdom is probably on par with Intelligence, maybe a little lower. My Charisma is anywhere from a 10 to a 14. I tend to be reserved and quiet around people I don't know, but once I get used to the situation and the group people tend to like me.

So yeah, if I were to go adventuring, the orcs would get me.
