[QUOTE="genshou, post: 2612721, member: 13164"] Point taken, but why do you assume that anyone here took an IQ test online? Mine was taken by request of my Jr. high school counselor, and taken nowhere near a computer. Oh, I definitely agree with you on this one. A few things that aren't represented by ability scores, but might affect my ability to adventure: Narcolepsy. A big one. DM: "The warm air current blowing down the tunnel is very relaxing, in stark contrast to the vileness of your previous surroundings. [B]genshou[/B], roll a Fortitude save. [B]genshou[/B]: "Crap." Hypoglycemia. The best mechanical representation I've ever made of this one simply involves the amount of time before a character begins to take subdual damage for no food, and how fast that damage accrues thereafter. A [I]ring of sustenance[/I] would be at the top of my magic item wish list. And of course there are other disadvantages I have that wouldn't directly relate to gaming, but certainly make up for any perceived "unfairness" in my situation. [/QUOTE]
