Would've edited my previous post but the time limit's up
Also wanted to comment on the notion that 9 is average. Is it? Remember in NWN, where if you had an intelligence of less than 9 you couldn't speak properly? Supposing 9 means an IQ of 100 (average), then it's pretty stupid to think that anyone with an IQ of 90 or 95 wouldn't be able to speak properly because they're so stupid. Maybe the average is really 11 or 12. Since the absolute higest score you can get is 25, that's not unbelievable that the average is actually 12. Which would put people's scores in better perspective. And put my strength score even more piddling than before
