When we talked about this with friends, everybody managed to agree on speed,
body, and mind. We could (quite) easily decide who could lift how much, who
could run how long, who was the best at darts, and who was quite intelligent
(in the IQ sense of the word). But when it came to Soul, then it was another
story entirely. It was a bit like that: "I'd say I'm charismatic" "Are you
kidding? *lol*" or "I have artistic sense, I write poetry" "Well, you can't
match 2 colors when you dress, and you write _bad_ poetry" and so on. The
thing is, our society/culture has found (and looked for) no way to define a
scale for "Soul".

(I almost forgot "I have good empathy, I understand people" "Yes, sure, like
when you said to this guy that...")

The hardened/failed was a bit easier, we tried to use the examples given, and
see until when it applied or not. BTW we decided that the Isolation ratings
were a bit... weird.
