You've still got points left to spend on abilities, DA (it's 40 points to spend, and max 15 per ability).

[DrowArchmage]

[SomeGuy]

Name: David Shanklin
Age: 37
Job: Un-occupied, homeless

Bio: A drunkard, kicked out of his own home by his wife because of his excessive drinking and gambling, David Shanklin was forced to live a life on the street. His friends wouldn't accept him, his family had exiled him. He had no place in the world. His prolonged disconnection with alcohol has kept him sober for awhile, choosing to spend whatever he could scrounge up to get what he needed to survive. David realized that if he was going to live, he'd have to learn to survive out on the streets. Living out there gave him a need outlook on life and he hoped soon he'd be able to fix his past mistake, and make something of himself. Balance (Ability to walk or crawl across unstable surfaces):

Brawling (Unarmed combat): 2
Climb (Ability to climb things, duh): 3
Drive (Cars, trucks, etc): 2
Melee (Skill with hand to hand weapons): 6
Athletics (Running, jumping): 6
Agility (Squeezing in small spaces):5
Urban survival (Street knowledge): 6
Wilderness survival (Hunting and trapping food, not getting lost): 5
Observation (Ability to spot or hear things): 5

I put points into things I figured a form drunkard/gambling man who's been living on a the streets for awhile would know. I mean, is a homeless guy really gonna know how to use electronics and whatnot? Maybe from a past job, but I figure he'd forgotten by now or something.

Name: Gregg Johnson
Age: 33
Nationality: English
Job: Taxi Driver
Bio: Working for his new boss, Mr. Teng, Gregg has been driving taxis for nearly a decade. Living alone in a one bedroomed flat, he hasn’t been able to hold down a girlfriend for longer than a month as he isn’t very polite, or clean for that matter. Farting, burping and picking his nose, this guy will do it in public if he has to. He is of average looks and better-than-average build (Isn’t very muscular, but isn’t fat). Knowing what the streets are like, and knowing that taxi drivers are usually a good target for theft, he always keeps a 9mm pistol in his taxi. He has good observation skills, imperative for that line of work (looking for people needing fares, etc.).
He has short, brown hair, which is balding on the crown ever so slightly, and blue eyes.

Abilities max of 15 points each:
Balance (Ability to walk or crawl across unstable surfaces): 2
Brawling (Unarmed combat): 3
Climb (Ability to climb things, duh): 2
Drive (Cars, trucks, etc): 6
Melee (Skill with hand to hand weapons): 3
Small Firearms (Pistols and SMGs): 4
Large Firearms (Rifles and the like): 1
Demolitions (Explosives): 0
Athletics (Running, jumping): 2
Agility (Squeezing in small spaces): 1
Urban survival (Street knowledge): 6
Wilderness survival (Hunting and trapping food, not getting lost): 3
Medical knowledge (First aid): 1
Observation (Ability to spot or hear things): 5
Construction (Building baracades and repairing buildings): 0
Electronics (Electronic knowledge): 1

Seeing as the limit was 15 I thought everything in 1’s would be underpowered and he would soon be zombie chowder, so a few things are 3’s even though he isn’t an expert in any. I’ll explain below, in case anything is too uber.

Balance – He can balance on one leg, for example, but cannot walk a tightrope.
Brawling – Has been in a fight before, but isn’t Mohammed Ali.
Climb – Can climb *shrugs*
Drive – Has been driving for a living, so is quite a good driver.
Melee – Knows how to hit people with bats, toasters, whatever is available *winks*
Small Firearms – Keeps a gun, knows how to use it
Large Firearms – Doesn’t know much about these, except they are like small firearms but not so.
Demolitions – No clue whatsoever.
Athletics – Can run
Agility – Not sure how to describe this one
Urban Survival – Knows the ins and outs of the city.
Wilderness Survival – Good at knowing his way around, assuming it is in the city.
Medical Knowledge – Knows nothing more than the next average guy
Observation – Good at noticing things
Construction – No clue
Electronics – Can work a mobile phone, computer, electronic microwave, nothing more.

Grr stupid internet, posted a reply but its not here. Recap:

Everyone's characters seem to be fine. Will open game thread now.

Gnarf: Example:
0 in driving - can drive but only average
0 in firearms - never handled a gun
Its subjective

[DrowArchmage]

I seriously got confused for a second. I'm good now.
