Well, as IQ is meant to be a relative scale, the default human of perfectly average intelligence should be precisely 100. However, as time passes, IQ seems to creep up by a few points, so the IQ questions are changed to bring it back to 100.
Well, it's a bullshit test in the first place, being based on white farmers from minnesota or whatever. So it's kind of a ridiculous comparison anyway.

Hmm. I'd want some sources with this.

Anyway. We just need Harbingerjm's sheet now, right?

I don't think Int can actually be directly compared to IQ. Although it's attractive to say one to ten is right just because the average int is 10, and the average IQ is 100. But that really breaks down quickly when you start moving up and down the scales. Even just a few points and you see it doesn't really work.

Still, it's interesting to think about.

Why wouldn't it? I could've sworn that it was a direct statement from WotC.

IQ is not a direct measure of intelligence IRL anyway. My IQ is pretty high, but I also just test well. When it comes to real-world application, I'm just kind of average.

Which is why I said it's inversely exponential; an IQ of 50 is more likely to be an Intelligence of 3 more than five.

An IQ of 200 is more likely to be an intelligence of about 30+. Etc.
