I have wondered if the official print stats for Adhesevist will have a fixed D4 Banter on his character sheet.
No. No he is not good at it but he tries.

I especially like that because, by the rules, everyone has a d4 Banter if they want. But because he’s really trying, it’s actually documented on his character sheet. :grin:

(Now I want to add that as part of all character creation as a way to give folks an opportunity to better flesh out their character. Something like: “You may choose a Quality or Power that your character has but is as good at as an average person. Assign a d4 to it.” :thinking: )

If we were doing a different system, I would say that he has a flaw/hindrance that his banter really, REALLY stinks, and that creates a penalty to intimidation or distraction or something.

I’m going to counter-argue that the Adhesivist’s Banter is a d6, because even though it’s awful, it succeeds at distracting people a lot of the time.
