[quote=@Silver Carrot]Quick question; do we start with no skills but with one of our 4 points being able to give us one, or do we start with a skill anyway?[/quote]

You start with no skills. If you spend 1 Experience, you can add a Skill. If you spend 1 Experience when you already have a Skill, you may upgrade that Skill. If you spend 1 Experience on Magic, you may add an appropriately scaled Spell (as in, a 1st Circle spell) to your Skill list.

BTW, so far I'm seeing no problems with Sherry's profile. Once you finish off your skills and we're all on the same page regarding previous relationships, whose-mother-is-who, etc she'd pretty much be good to go. Since she's got 1st Rate physical strength, she would've been able to Awaken Aura sometime after age 21 if you wanted her to do that; however, given that her backstory implies she stopped pushing herself to train, and intentionally avoided dangerous events, I would say that she probably would not have unlocked her Aura Type in her First Life. Anyone who's Awakened their aura, however, can do the bare minimum of self-enhancement (Going from a normal human to an anime-style human in terms of physical capability).
