Depends on country of origin... =P

(stuff deleted obout parents) Tere's another intresting clause. "The
Grandfather Clause" In essence, you can't kill your own bloodline. It
would reflect badly on your geneology. I mean, how do you explain killing
your grandfather, so your mother isn't born, so you aren't born, so you
can't be there to kill your grandfather... (Messy, neh?)

Understood. It can STILL be nasty tho...

Oh, the fun you can have. "Ok, we beging the game a week ago when you were
in the hospital." (player) "I wasn't in the hospital!" (GM) "Let me
explain how..."

"It's not like talking with people. With people, anything can be said and
nothing matters. Words and words and words. You go to a party... people
sit around and say things. Anything. Just to talk. Put forth views and
debate them. Sometimes you get a new idea. Sometimes something changes"
