fatal

ers, not necessarily due to differences in appeal, but
ability. While objectivity should always be sought,
this is only a game. If a player expresses significant
discontent, and should the Aedile agree, the Aedile
may consider another method. Above all, caution
is advised, since this may become a slippery slope to
other concessions.
Solely at the Aedile’s discretion, a player may
be permitted to roll 5d100, drop the lowest result,
divide the sum by 2, and subtract 1 from the total to
determine a sub-ability. This alternate method
should produce an average sub-ability of 115. No
more than 4 attempts, meaning 4 sub-abilities or
retries, may be made with this method. For each
roll with this advantaged method, another roll must
be made, one that will balance the character; roll
1d100 and consult the Random Mental Illness table in
the end of Chapter 5: Mind. If the roll indicates a
mental illness already possessed by the character,
then reroll. Hence, no more than 4 mental illnesses
may be acquired in this way. This option exists only
at the moment of character creation and at the
Aedile’s discretion.
