yup. and, depending on how good their leg work was, I gave them hints and sometimes extra marks on their map to see stuff they may run into.

I'm trying to decide which of two characters I should try using in the forum game: The covert ops specialist built from the priority system, or the physad built off the point system.

I like being sneaky, so...

You should customize physads too, cause they present a nice opportunity to be unique.

Yeah, those new social adepts are scary. Can't do jack all over the commlines though.

Yeah, but if you get them at a physical meet, they don't have to worry.

seems like most of them would just be used car salespeople.

It's not, really. It's a sort of crossroads between playing a non-magical social character and a magical one. The non-magical one is simply more used to being convincing over the phone, I guess.

I'm just thinking career wise. you discover the ability to convince anyone of anything. what would you do?
public office? sure. there's pleanty of power there. sales? absolutely. door to door salespeople would be great for that. you'd sell so much tupperwear that they'd give you the company.

used car sales? best saleswoman on the east, west, and any cost. you could work one day a month and get enough comission to pay your bills for the month.

Until someone figures out you're a magical "cheat." Then fire you/indict you for fraud/burn you at the stake. Remember all those athletes who were chastised for being adept "cheats."

Yeah, but adept athletes have their own leagues. That's a bit different for getting arrested for selling someone something they didn't want. Hell, in the case of the used car saleswoman, as long as the "lemon laws" in her community aren't violated, she has not committed a crime.
