Re: [DL] Raiseing Traits

["John Goff" <JohnGoff@deadlands.com>]

Traits _don't_ become d20s--the curve on a d20 is so erratic that it's not a
favorable die to use for the DL system as a Trait. Instead, use d12+8 if you
want to go that high; it's average and the odds of aceing on it are much
better.
