Hi,
On B:18, the height/weight/ST chart sets out the relationship between these three traits. It seems implied that they should correlate, unless your character is Skinny, Overweight, etc.
Do they have to correlate to be realistic/reasonable? When building racial templates for humanoid species (or especially for human "sub-races"), if I want them to have an Average human build, does that mean I shouldn't have their racial ST, height, and weight mismatch?
What if I want a "sub-race" of humans (or species of humanoids) who are very tall (like, average 6'5" to 7') but otherwise pretty normal, without giving them racial ST+4 (which would be huge)? ST+2 is the most I want, and I'd prefer ST+1. Do they need to have Skinny by RAW? How should I decide their weight? Can I just say they have a slender build or something, and reduce their Average-build weight below the listed weight for 7' tall?
What if I want a humanoid species (or "sub-race", etc.) who are short but not ultralight or weak? Should I base their Average-build weight on their ST or their height?
Please help.
Thanks!
I didn't find the right solution from the Internet.
