Title: How stupid is 48? (Rp question)
Post by: Kaseijin on March 12, 2005, 08:29:31 pm

OK i have character a kran who\'s got an intelligence of 48. I want to roleplay him real well, but i don\'t know how stupid should someone of 48 intelligence be. Can he make decent sentences? Or does he just have trouble grasping more complex concepts such as squaring a number? Does he have to be rude? Or can he be polite and stupid?
Any ideas of how a 48 intelligence character should act.

I usually just RP with my character as I want to, without thinking about the stats...

Im guessing a normal person, but gets confused when you get into government and stuff.

60 is average for a starting character.

In other words, you are, more or less, an idiot.  :))

It is not that bad, other races have their weakness too, krans just have a weakness in inteligent.

Just think about it on a 100 scale it is almost half :D

I think you can\'t measure how stupid someone is, by looking at his character sheet, which you should know if you\'re a roleplayer. Intelligence only matters when it comes to how quick he learns or how good he is at solving riddles and so on. Being low on intelligence doesn\'t make you a retard. :)

yeah i just figured he takes in new concepts much harder... and isn\'t too good at providing at spur of moment arguments...and such things

he still knows his name at any time of the day
