29.

That's 12 points below the average damage of the weapon... so I hate to think how rubbish that char would be if he was awkward...

I had two charracters who dragged anyone they wanted in one go, until they got tired..

One dragged a person into two rooms.. killed them and 10 days later still couldn't drag the friggin' body

They're bran flakes or corn flakes or some kind of grain cereal. Supposed to make you strong. I'd quote the slogan if I wasn't afraid of violating copyright.

If by "wheaties" you mean "physical strength skill," then yes.

All my baddies are dead! Killed by both goodies, and other baddies. Oh and I spawned someone who was intended to be a bit mischievous, but she's on a practically deserted island, and so can't do much.

Most of my characters are law abiding. I have a few characters who have (unintentionally) broken the laws because they were so unclear and a few who have considered steeling but never got around to it.

I got one pirate, several borderline cases that might assault somebody given a perfect oppoturnity with no witnesses, but most of my characters are on the right side of the tracks. Many have settled down though in the beginning I used to have loads of wanderers.

I tend to be poor at the "Me hit stuff then me take stuff!" kind of baddie so don't have any. I did have a very refined "Entertain me or die" dictator but he's dead (heart attack due to exams) and I may or may not have a confidence trickster, and have in the past had crooked merchants and dodgy soldiers who were a bit too mercenary or enthusiastic.

I think people misunderstood the purpose of the poll...

the Poll says everyone is basically nice and good...

The chit chat says how clever you are at being criminals...


I'm inclined to agree with the poll..........

Maybe it's a problem with how people define "criminal" in the poll?

Perhaps a simpler poll which only gives the options "mostly lawful" "roughly equal numbers of lawful and unlawful" or "mostly unlawful" would yield more useful responses?

Then people can discuss how they are lawful or unlawful in the thread.

Nobody wants to talk about their boring farmer characters. The "occasional opportunistic criminal" or the "few pirates/criminals" are much more fun to talk about than the vast majority of law-abiding characters who do nothing but flirt, legislate and trade.
