up and down keys again instead of conferring with multiple people and drawing from any actual experience i talked to myself for a few days and came up with this mess. listen at your own risk. there was a bit of a delay in actually sharing this because i had an issue with the idea that there were some people who had writing that i just couldn't find. i figure it's good advice regardless.
the other thing i was gonna say but realized it was a little less important and also it was practically already in the original is that i feel like having a believable character is more important than having a balanced one. not that having a balanced character doesn't help, just the idea of viewing it as what a character has or hasn't spent time learning rather than balancing a list of good and bad.
