You have a critical eye for everything and trouble taking things at face value. Where ordinary people get by on half-truths, you see to the core. This makes you a probing and sceptical nature, confident in your own insight and critical of others. Unless you take care to wrap your questions, this can be annoying, especially for those who know you best. You are sometimes caught staring so intently its rude.
For a character to have an exceptional attribute, outside the "normal" range you must first purchase a specific Pulp Schtick for each sub-attribute. This not only adds a small extra cost, it also gives more or less defined special traits and extraordinary characteristics tied to such high ability scores. Unlike ordinary Pulp schticks, these offer no or very little benefit and some hindrance; they are more flaws than schticks but you still pay for them. If you want to be able to get exceptional attributes but do not want the effects of the schtick, you can pay double price to ignore the effect.
These schticks are considered genre schticks and are not used in all campaigns. See Schticks and Exceptional.
