Just wondering, but have you people taken a look at the Tinkerbell CARD
lately? #1, she's a rigger, so obviously she's going to spend most of her
time with machines, not people. #2, she's got technical, so she's probably
a bit of a nerd. And THEN, #3, she's got SOCIAL. Now, how could she have
gotten social skills if she spends most of her time with machines?
Probably because she's so attractive that people are falling all over her.
Her stuttering and shyness are considered cute. Haven't you ever seen that
before?

I think the picture fits the card. Hollywood has Social because he knows
what to say and when to say it. Foxy Roxy is the queen of Social because
she's attractive AND has the social know-how. All Tink has going for her
is her looks. The picture reflects that.

(don't expect me to explain Elvish Ranger, tho... I really think her
anatomy would get in the way of any longbow use :-)
