IMHO that's one of the problems with playing spike babies. I've had one or two
players ask me about it, and well, my feeling is that if they really want to, sure -- but
the chars would be made using the normal creation rules. That, though, means they
in essence lack the 50+ years of experience and/or accumulated wealth such people
would have. (I feel it's sort of like playing Vampire and saying the char is 400 years
old; you'll still be only as powerful as a vampire that was embraced the day before the
campaign starts.)
