Out of all the Sheets I have seen so far, the only two I saw that need to be rejected were Caroline Johnson, mostly due to how broken some of her abilities are, and Rezillk the Grand for very obvious reasons.

Everyone else is In. IC sometime tonight. Probably in the next 2-4 hours.

All fanfics are heresy, each and every one, especially the shipping ones. Those are by far the worst.

They're not for mundane stuff, no, they're for combat stuff. It is ti be presumed that characters are capble of mundane stuff without abilities to dictate so -- otherwise your character would be the only one able to take care of themselves.

So only your character can? And only your character can drive and do taxes and cook and swim and do first aid or read a map or do a customer service job or read upside down or write in cursive or have a high school education or take care of a dog or do basic chores? Your character doesn't have eating or writing in print or using a computer or searching for things as skills, can he not do these?

As long as it makes sense for the character, I imagine anyone could play yugioh or shoot a gun -- these aren't what abilities are meant for, and it's reasonable to assume someone could do that without it being explicitly spelled out and given stats -- to insist otherwise would be to try and hijack their purpose in order to normal roleplay far more difficult.

Here's a quick and dirty test for whether it's a skill you need to spend a training point on:
Is it immediately relevant to combat?

Yes:Skill.  Now throw numbers at it.

No:Fluff.  Put it in the backstory, which coincidentally, yours really needs work and I'm saying this as the guy who absolutely hates writing backstories over developing them in play.
