[Swordbearer] Characteristics, Fate Points and Experience

[Rachel Kronick]

A very late reply, but I just had an idea about this:

What about making Fate Points inversely proportional to age? Like, an 
old person would be really experienced and therefore highly skilled, but 
a young person just manages to get through life unscathed somehow. Make 
it a direct tradeoff: (30 - starting XP) = starting Fate Points. Or 
perhaps (30 - starting XP)/3, for a more restrictive limit.

I remember from making characters that a good roll on XP was critical to 
having a good character. This would nicely offset that.
