But it removes someof the RP fun as well. Cholan has a native Empathy of
_1_...his multiplier of x2 gives him a max of 2.  Granted, even a x5
douesn't help much...he's still an antisocial bastard, but say he had a 5
native, max at 10.  That means that, with much dedicatio, he could be almost
tolerable.  Allowing oneto increase multiplers means he could be worked up
to x5, giving him better than the average joe.  But since I made the
"choice" to limit myself to x2 early on, I should not benifit later on when
everything else is maxed (and I have benefited by moving x2 worth of
multiplier elsewhare for all this time) and I then spend points on this.
