…And this would be the Platonic Ideal of the character that I inevitably end up playing. I’ve never used him in a game, though. Mad Jack Wheelie, truthfully, is probably mostly just for looking at.

**It’s a long story, and not a particularly relevant one.
***Yup. That’s a target number of 2 on 2d6. It literally takes almost a Divine Intervention to get Mad Jack Wheelie to play the bagpipes properly.

****Guess.
*****Rumors that Laurence was cajoled into gifting him with a Scabbard Attunement with a rather increased upper weight limit have not been confirmed beyond a reasonable doubt. After all, Mad Jack Wheelie could just have been given a Los Angeles-class nuclear submarine with the Summonable Feature.
‘Mad Jack Wheelie’
This is not an Attunement: it’s more of an explicit enumeration of just how obnoxious his tactical skills are. As it stands, Mad Jack Wheelie has a target number of 24 in Tactics and Strategy, before his… unique… artifact is taken into account. That works out to an auto-success with a minimum CD of 13, just in case it needs to be spelled out.
