The Character Creation Page said...
I guess I did not cater for a Character of low Mind or did not conceive why a Character would be created to be less than average intelligence. I can see how you came to that conclusion, so to remove all doubt I have updated the Skills page.
Your Character is approved.
Due to the location of the current Characters I will update the main Scenario now (Look out for it) to include yours, but this does not mean the Game has started, it is just a logical reason for your Character to 'suddenly' appear. You may then take my cue to enter the Brainstorm Thread.
This is what I have so far. I hope I did this properly.

I'm concerned about your "Body" So you really want to be that weak at the sake of having more skills? You will have a penalty of -2 on any roll that involves Body and your health will be 4 instead of the deafult 6. Nevertheless, it is up to you. You need to use the Create Character button and fill in the fields with your final. After you do this you can then respond here: Future Earth Players In Waiting.
I kind of like the idea of playing a physically weak character, but I don't want her to be a drag on the party. What happens if I trade two points of Soul to my Body Stat? Would that make her a smart character that makes bad decisions? I ask because that would also fit with my vision of this character.
Now that your Character is created you can use the Support Thread for questions, but just to answer you quickly: Soul in FE is more about luck or karma or how things work for you when you need it the most. The "Wisdom" Of your character is part of your actions and role-play but it never stops me from applying your Soul.
So having a low Soul would make her unlucky? That's tempting, but I fear an unlucky pilot could be a greater danger to the group than a weak one.

Character Description
Artemis is of slight build, and relentlessly cheerful. She has short red hair, and dresses modestly. She walks with slight limp, and it embarrasses her when people mention it.
Character History
Artemis grew up on farm that was raided by human smugglers, was abducted and was rescued by space marines. Since that time she has always felt great debt towards the military. As soon as she was old enough, she enlisted in the navy, where she was trained as pilot and learned to gamble. She served one term of service and was discharged as result of training accident that has permanently affected her health.
Although her plan of becoming dreaded pirate hunter didn't work out, Artemis still bears grudge against smugglers that prey on the weak, and still feels debt to the marines that saved her.
Character Notes*
Artemis is qualified pilot, and fairly good mechanic.
No need to re-Post everything, you just update your Character Sheet with this info. Also you do not need to put the cost of each item just the item's name and the balance of credits you have left. After that you put your Character's response in the linked Thread I gave earlier.
