John,
  The GM was more interested that we get out TFT attributes right.  Our 
characters were assumed to know what ever we as players knew.  As to 
physical talents, I don't think we were really qualified for any but the GM 
let one of us have Fencing, most Mathmatics, all Literacy, and a smattering 
of mundane talents. Several players insisted on Guns.

  Here is a table for determining Strength.

  In addition he allowed the players to choose any IQ they wanted, but the 
attribute total had to equal 32.  So with an average ST, claiming an above 
average IQ made for a low DX.  Since we all knew how important DX was in TFT 
we were quite modest in our IQ claims.

  As to ill effects, I would have to say the only ill effects were those 
suffered by the local communities when we began to hatch our plans, 
manipulate people, and otherwise "mess" with their world.  Using the Cidri 
side of the base we set our selves up as petty gods, and began a campaign to 
conquer, errr I mean to civilze, the local areas.  It was easy to represent 
ourselves as dieties seeing that we knew more about their magic system than 
the local professional wizards did.  The GM should have called this campaign 
"The Ego Trip."
