Count_Chumleigh 05-05-07, 11:05 PM	I was wondering what your opinion of combinations of mental attributes would be. Such as low Cha, High Int, etc. I think I know what you're talking about, but can't say for certain. Could you, perhaps, clarify? Perhaps starting with what is meant by "etc?" Perhaps you're better at seeing patterns than me, but "low Cha, High Int [sounds like a royal title, doesn't it, when it's capitalized like that], etc." has no meaning to me, as it leaves out Wisdom. Wisdom could be high, low, or middling, and it's very important in determining a character's personality. Cheers, --Count Chumleigh

High Intelligence - Low Wisdom - Low Charisma. Although exceptionally intelligent, this combination lends nothing to a person's ability to understand the world or interact well with other people. They are likely to be weak-willed and absent-minded. They most likely seek out a quiet place to work where they don't have to deal with other people or life's problems and then crank out some amazing theories. This stat combination may signify Asperger's Syndrome, a variant of Autism Spectrum Disorder. The Abrasive Genius High Intelligence - High Wisdom - Low Charisma Not only intelligent but intuitive, this person has a keen insight into every situation. However even though they know why people act the way that they do, they're not capable of dealing with other people. Since they are strong-willed, it is likely that they are inflexible when dealing with other people and aren't capable of compromising their own behaviour for the other person. The Lucky Bastard High Intelligence - High Wisdom - High Charisma This person is highly skilled, very perceptive person with good interpersonal skills. They understand how people think and can usually get on a person's good side because of this. They are also capable of not only developing good theories but are also skilled at communicating them to others. The Quiet Watcher Low Intelligence - High Wisdom - Low Charisma No one pays much attention to the person with this combination of traits. They don't speak articulately and they aren't good at interacting with others, but they notice everything that's going on. They often possess a piercing insight, that cuts through the complications they don't understand, going straight to the heart of the matter. However they often explain this insight poorly or don't speak up at all. The Practical Person Low Intelligence - High Wisdom - High Charisma Though they may not have had a good education or learned well from the one they had, this person has common sense and is good at getting you to see it. Probably a very down to earth person. Someone who everyone listens to, not just because they're pleasant to talk to but because their advice is usually right. The Loveable Dolt Low Intelligence - Low Wisdom - High Charisma This person doesn't know much, but somehow they still manage to be the one who gets listened to. Perhaps they get along with everyone by agreeing with people who seem more intelligent or perhaps their persuasive charm talks people into following their stupid ideas. However they certainly can't tell you why people like them, they probably haven't even noticed. They're terrible at understanding what other people are thinking. I hit stuff now? Low Intelligence - Low Wisdom - Low Charisma This character doesn't speak much, probably because they don't think much. They're just quietly in the background, probably doing what other people tell them since they don't have a very good willpower. You can only hope that they were made with a point-buy system so at least you know that they're physically okay, because mentally they're close to a vegetative state.
