Sure, if you built a civilization out of 5 int bards, they'd all probablly sit around saranading each other and scratching, and probablly quickly go extinct. There are little to no doubts on this character's capacity to survive unaided. But having high scores in the "gets along well with others" stat and playing the people oriented bard points us at the fact thit this character wasn't really meant to survive on his own anyway.And I don't know about the rest of you, but those stats definately remind me of at least one pretty girl who I helped cheat on a test.To brun: Two things you're going to need to watch out for. The first is the guy not playing to his character's stats. You know, coming up with great plans, and so on. Depending on your campaign this may or may not be a problem. The secont problem area is, ironically, that he plays the numbers too much. If he uses his stats as a reason to do boneheaded things because he "couldn't see the consiquences" you could have another problem. Ultimately you and your group define the bounds of acceptable.</blockquote>
