Are they really perceived as all but worthless? Is this including the
abilities added in the Grimoire II? I've played one, and he worked
out OK. Definitely not a street sam.
Does a physical adept have to train to gain his abilities
starting out? Whether it was correct or not, my character was a
physical adept known only as the Kid. He was a homeless boy that
lived in southside Atlanta, and had adopted an area of a few blocks
that he protected from the local gangs, etc. The community would
often leave gifts in the alleys in thanks, usually food, etc. that he
would accept.
But the question was whether he had to have an instructor, or
could these talents develop "naturally?" We eventually compromised,
and he had a mentor for a while that taught him. Our GM ruled that
Adepts were similar to Star Wars Jedi Knights, in that the potential
was always there in some, but that some degree of instruction was
still necessary.
