Five months have passed since my young apprentice emerged from his growth chamber, and I am most pleased with his progress thus far. While not yet able to roll over, sit up without support, or do a proper endo, Kyle’s advancement is nonetheless most impressive. Just look at these stats:
| Name | Kyle Abraham Johnson | Level: | 1 | Class: | Neophyte | Age: | 5 months | ||
| Race: | Human | Alignment: | Chaotic Cuddly | Size: | Small | ||||
| STR | 5 | (-2) | Special Abilities & Equipment | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| DEX | 4 | (-3) | Enhanced Spit-up | |
| CON | 10 | Improved Grab | ||
| INT | 16 | (+3) | Infectious Giggle | |
| WIS | 15 | (+2) | Stinky Feet | |
| CHA | 17 | (+3) | Baby Blues |
The physical stats may seem dismal now, but I expect them to improve rapidly. I’ve already seen significant advancement in both Strength and Dexterity after only five months. The boy’s Charisma cannot be overstated; friends, relatives and strangers alike fall under his spell, reduced to grinning, babbling fools with a mere smile.
I get chills when I think about the power those blue eyes and the soft, cooing voice have over people. With Kyle at my side — or in the Snugli — the possibilities are endless. We will rule the cul-de-sac as father and son!
I can personally attest to the Stinky Feet……. Whoooooooo Wheeeeeeeeee, mom and I didn’t believe it when you and Lola were telling us that he had stinky feet. I do believe that the words “but babies feet don’t stink!” were uttered, until one after the other we went to nibble on his toes. Several ill-concealed gags later we were irreversibly proven wrong.
As to the power of those blue eyes and soft, cooing voice….yup.
