I've got a girl whose idea when I was spawning/planning her was "fox", and... it turns out that not only is she 'weaker than average' but she's also a good hunter, fighter, and fisher.
Now, the thing about foxes in stories, usually, is they're not the strong ones. They're the tricksters and the clever ones. So when my character's got skill but not strength, and then the fishing lets her get a food source that's fairly wild-seeming to me... I am pleased.
I just realized that this may be spoilering one of my characters if anyone reads this who's in her area... but I don't really care whether people know my characters are mine or not. *shrug*)
And... the character generator has once again decided to be surprisingly appropriate. I spawned a character who, as far as I can tell, is secretly a puppy, personality-wise. And what do I find out today but that she's an expert at digging?
Hey, I tried the exact same thing, tried making a character who is a 'fox'. Much Stronger than Average, awkward hunter, efficient fighter. Skillful at fishing, but really as far as I know foxes don't catch fish, at least not the type of fox she's based off. *sigh* I hate that, when you spawn a character with a specific idea of what you want, and it doesn't work out at all. You got lucky. xD
