In true HiBRiD spirit, I have begun another creative project: The HIBRiD character generator program.
It will be written in the Ruby programming language using the Rails framework and allow you to store, update, and print out character sheets for your characters.
The first module has already been written: an aging module. It takes your character's stats and age then creates an "character aging profile" for the Director. This aging profile tells what age and month your character loses each point from his stats until he dies. It then takes the age of your character and applies all the penalties determined by his aging profile to his stats.
Why such an elaborate function? Because in the Advanced HiBRiD Rules, the number of skills a character receives depends on two stats: his age and his INTL attribute. The algorithm prevents everyone from running 122 year old characters just to jack up their character's skill repertoire or action levels.
In any case, the app is sitting on github as we speak, waiting for me to find the time to do some more work on it..
