[QUOTE="Flamestrike, post: 8182046, member: 6788736"] Wildly different. They've had vastly different experiences which would have molded them very differently. Assume one goes to a savage world, is raised by Barbarians and chained to the Wheel of Pain for 10 years after being captured by James Earl Jones waving some two headed snake banner, and having his village massacred. He's then tossed into a fighting pit to fight for his life, and trained by the finest swordsmen of Khitai. He lives to hear the lamentations of his enemies women, and to see people driven before him. The other guy is adopted by a culture that appreciates fine art and scholarly pursuits and neglects any physical training in lieu of attaining a degree in Astrophysics and fine Art, before becoming a vegetarian, travelling the world, and studying philosophy at the feet of a great scholar for years. When they meet up 10 years later, they're going to have very different stats indeed. [/QUOTE]
