The importance of character stories...

[Primus Avatar]

generally, its pointless to RP a supersmart guy if you are not supersmart yourself

I'm gonna be a bit of-topic here: I don't agree, even in real life (i mean OUTSIDE freelancer universe and its mods) there are people how pretend to be smart, they suck up to certain important people who then support them and their way of thinking even if its just plain stupid. (such things happen all the time, just look at some of the posts on the forums) those people then appear smarter then they are.

And min also that this is a game, a RP game... have you ever played D&D? Kids and adults play it... ya can choose to be a smart sorcerer who has inborn uber-inteligence even if you're a little kid and still be able to roleplay it very well.

for instance: "aahh those runes..... they look familiar.... they are written in ancient elven language!"

you don't really have to know this ancient elven language, and you don't have to write down a little novel about how you came to know what they mean to be able to roleplay as if you knew.
