*sheepish look* Would it help if I said it sounded better in my head when I thought it? ^^;
I did get part of my (non forum) discussion across however, in that Zara spent more points on advantages and stats for potential where Lammy spent more on the skills themselves. I essentially took a template from one of the GURPS books for a Bard and applied it to both characters for their "same role."
You may also note that Zara's best skill, Sex Appeal, is at default [that is, no points actually spent on it directly] and counts as a success of 20 or less (kinda) on 3d6.
I was thinking along the lines that Zara's player was going for "I can do it myself!" and Lammy's was saying, "I'm the social butterfly. If I'm in combat I did something WRONG."
However, I can go back and tweak away to try to get my point across better... maybe.
