Oh dear. He thinks fighting ability = power?
Even assuming power is what you want, how mistaken can you get?
I really wish I'd been there, now. After the first game, we could have come up with a non-combat PC to tie him in knots with. Start with a mastery in "smile seductively" and go on from there, perhaps. Or some Ernaldan matron with "bully warriors". Or some kid with a pointy stick and enough personality traits and common magic to get a mastery or so in augments. Oh, it would have been fun.
