If I gave a character based on myself a Soul skill
appropriate to UA (as per the descriptions of people
with low and High Soul stats), I wouldn't be able to
play an adept.  And, if I was gonna be "me" in UA, I'd
want me to be an adept.

Unlike, it would seem, the majority of people these
days, I do not play RPGs because I'm a cool and
socially well-adjusted person.
