People who need a wheelchair? Able bodied people who play wheelchair sports?
rambling
Is there a better term than "able bodied"? Uh, I was gonna ramble with a list of names but I can't think of any. Normal would be one I guess. But that's the same issue as able bodied.
I think able-bodied is fine? Hell of a lot better than 'normal' anywhere.
Generally if there is ever an option other than 'normal' for describing a person I think you should not use 'normal'.

yeah i'm so used to min-maxing
18/00 is normal strong
charisma is a 3 because you can just get a ring that sets that to 18
lol why would I need int as a stat, I'm not a mage, that can be a 3
On able-bodied/normal/average: Not to bring up math again, but one of my fave stat facts is: The average human has less than 2 arms. (or legs, or less than 10 fingers/toes etc etc.
Also a great way to teach people the importance of median vs average.
Thinking about it, the intended way to get around all the stuff which would kill a player character instantly was probably to use your schmucks for that
If you got to level 9 as a fighter, you would become a "Lord" and attract a small army (the book stresses that this happens "automatically")

I might figure the dexterity higher, personally - I felt like the question set it gave me was focused on the side of dexterity that I'm bad at, but such is the way of things. And then, y'know, everything else can probably be reduced by 1 because I'm a narcissist so clearly my answers are skewed.

Except expressing doubt about yourself is something a narcissist would never do so nah the results stand
Old D&D doesn't really support that interpretation but in old D&D everything beyond 18 was superhuman and your stats typically didn't increase
In the link, 19 is "able to break wood with bare hands" but in AD&D that would be Hill Giant strength
Similarly, 17-18 is already named as "genius" intellect
Right, since we're dealing with real actual people I just assumed we'd use the more realistic 5e versions instead of the 3/3.5e versions where you could literally rip planets in half.

yeah having multiple questions focused on juggling, just like having multiple questions focused on natural languages spoken, kinda screwed me over

Like, I can pick locks! I can escape handcuffs! Ask me about those dumb talents!
I also found it weird that the wisdom questions didn't have much about one's awareness/senses, as that is generally something that falls within that domain. Like, if we're just calling wisdom common sense, mine should be a lot lower probably - I'm fine with the thirteen because I'll take that as a high visual perception and ability to tell when someone is lying, which is where I actually have some talent.

Oh, that's my character after a few levels.
Each time you make one, add a permanent-1 modifier to all stats.
LOOK I KNOW I'M OLD OKAY.
-1 to STR, DEX and CON; +1 to INT, WIS, CHA
53 and over it's -2; +1.
70 and over it's -3; +1.
And a PCs maximum age is 70 + 2d20.

makes it make a little more sense
9-11 is 'average adult' in D&D.
18/00 is normal strong
charisma is a 3 because you can just get a ring that sets that to 18
lol why would I need int as a stat, I'm not a mage, that can be a 3

Wait I looked at that link never mind hypothetical DnD Juggs is still hilariously average and killable.
I currently have twelve due to workplace vacancies unfortunately

Yeah looks about right. The somewhat intelligent weirdo who has no social skills that's me
With Wis 15 you would make an excellent trapper/furrier if you didn't become a PC for some reason
I don't know jack shit about DnD.
in 3.5 a Gibbering Mouther has a Charisma of 13.
