That's 4 Bs. I don't think 5 people are likely to show up and vote A, so I'm calling it. He'll go with the good tools at the expense of having a hammer.
Next, Reputations and Affiliations. Reputations are things the character is known for, and Affiliations are groups they're, uh, affiliated with. Both help the character find people.
A local or minor reputation (the fastest kid on the street, the town drunk) costs 7 points.
An affiliation with a small, local or specialized group (a group of bandits, a large family) costs 10 points.
A regional or notable reputation (an old war hero, a religious figurehead) costs 25 points.
An affiliation with a large, regional or expansive group (a trade guild, a pirate fleet) costs 25 points.
We have exactly 25 points to work with. So, that's either one notable reputation, one affiliation with a large group, or two local reputations and an affiliation with a small group (plus one point left over.)
Rather than voting between those options, let's hear you guys propose some stuff. What sorts of reputations might he have? What groups might he be affiliated with?
