But then ISTR Rob rather liked the slightly off-beat Vingan I made for him as a pre-gen for Dragonmeet. The one with skills of "arthritic" and "slow". She thought she'd retired twenty years ago, then the Lunars made her change her mind. Worked nicely as a foil for the other off-beat Vingan, the one who'd been initiated for several weeks now and had skills including "over-enthusiastic" and "impulsive". Come to think of it, she had "young" listed as a skill, too, and we didn't use that as a flaw as often as we should have.
