Nah, it's just that her movement speed is calculated based on an earlier version that used a different measurement unit than m/s.
With that in mind, her Agility score is as high as a non-augmented human can possibly get.

I have a pretty good grasp on my character. I'll post it soonish.
Edit: In fact, I'll start now and edit it as required. Not all of this passed through Lith first, so things are liable to change.
Name: TBD (I agree with the Count, this part sucks)
Race: Human - Wampyr.
Background: Former watchman.
Proficiency: Trained in basic armed combat, mostly spear and shield.
Abilities: Infused. Specific ability to be revealed at a later time. (this one I did sent to Lith)
Equipment: Ancient Greece style armor, spear, shield. All in perfect shape. A polishing and oiling kit for his equipment. Waterskin, mess kit, small knife, bedroll.
Birthplace: Edessa.

CountBezuhoff said: PS: Oh, so there are build points. And aspects. And personas? And all sorts of weird abilities. And now I have a headache.
I'll try to clarify some stuff, but since we're more or less free-forming it, most won't really come into play.
The following costs are relevant only during character creation. Build Points cannot be used during play.
* Attributes: 10 build points per rating
* Skills: 7 build points per rating, 4 if discounted
* Skill Specialties: 1 build point per Specialty
* Knowledge: 2 build points per rating
* Qualities: 5 build points per rating
* Weaknesses: refund 5 build points per rating
* Infused Abilities: 8 build points per rating
* Attuned Paths: 10 build points per rating
Aspects
These represent the skillset the Character focuses in and has spent their life honing or is in training for. Each Aspect grants discount to specific skills, access to specific Qualities, or additional abilities and powers.
* Scholar: Scientists, researchers, scholars, they receive a bonus in the number of Knowledge points at creation. (Intellect + Wits x3 instead of x2).
* Socialite: Diplomats, performers, spies, politicians, and the like. They get a discount for the respective skills and access to Socialite-only Qualities.
* Soldier: Military, police, mercenaries, thugs, and the like. They get a discount for the respective skills and access to Soldier-only Qualities.
* Specialist: Thieves, survivalists, athletes, assassins and the like. They get a discount for the respective skills and access to Specialist-only Qualities.
* Empowered: Able to channel the power of the Realms, they are feared and respected. They get access to special abilities and Empowered-only Qualities.
NB: The professions listed above are simply examples and not meant as an exhaustive list of what is capable under each Aspect. Specific Character concepts may be served better by taking the Dual Aspect Quality.
Personas
The true nature of a Character, the core of their personality. Each Persona is associated with an attribute and Characters aligned with a specific element receive a +1 bonus to the respective attribute.
* Mercurial: Easygoing, fleeting, and flexible, characters with this Persona are often found where they should not be. They are associated with Agility.
* Explorer: Observant, perceptive, but not necessarily connected to the world around them, these characters are a curious lot. They are associated to Awareness.
* Hedonist: Passionate, vivid, and seeking attention, characters with this Persona burn bright but often for a brief period. They are associated with Charisma.
* Leader: Focused, sharp, and precise, but often rigid and unyielding, those with this Persona are creatures of logic and reason. They are associated with Intellect.
* Creator: Imaginative, with the fortitude necessary to see their visions to fruition, those with this persona rarely give up. They are associated with Resilience.
* Hero: Ready to answer a cry for help, characters with this Persona often face insurmountable odds. They are associated with Strength.
* Pragmatist: Stalwart, practical, slow to anger, and slow to forget, this Persona is for those willing to do whatever it takes to survive. They are associated with Vitality.
* Schemer: Secretive, deceptive, and calculating, these characters see the big picture, often pulling the strings behind the scenes. They are associated with Wits.
NB: The choice of Persona and Bearing should be made based on the Character's personality, not necessarily the skills or Aspect they follow. The player should work with the ST in order to find the best combination.
Bearings
The path each Character has devoted themselves to, or are defined by, according to their actions. Each Bearing grants the Character a free Specialty in one of the skills associated with the respective Aspect.
* Architect: With a strong sense of purpose and the need for structure, those that don this bearing are often seen as controlling. Most popular with Scholars.
* Caregiver: Embracing this bearing means understanding society, and other people. Not always benign, they are often called infectious. Most popular with Socialites.
* Champion: Pledging themselves to do what must be done, those following this bearing understand the need to harm in order to protect or survive. Most popular with Soldiers.
* Rebel: Seeing opportunity at every turn and rules as guidelines, those that align with this bearing dance to their own tune. Most popular with Specialists.
NB: The Specialty granted by the Bearing requires a rating of 1 or higher in the respective skill in order to apply, just like normal ones.

Gnomes loves Noobie's butt. Now I am intrigued.
And as for the system, I think it's D&D (if that's what you mean by system). I think its better that Lith clarify this.

Gnomes just loves Noobie's butt. He's like the wolf that chases the moon. He can't catch it or have it.

Oh I see. Well, just breath in...
For busy people like us, we need to work smart and trim down our tasks. Take a while to see what's the most essential part of the task and implement it.
Like when I did my character, I just searched for a basic Rogue D&D character type along with NoobX help on providing the sheet template and a few talks with Lith. We don't need to figure out the big picture. Just take small steps. I also think Lith isn't that strict
Don't hesitate to ask for help! We are always here for you.

It's not D&D (not every Role Playing game is D&D). Based on what Lith said,you it's a homebrew system which takes inspiration from several different systems.
However, since this RP is going to be free-form, i.e. no dice rolling, I don't think it really matters what system the sheet is based on.
