Traveller is widely known for the simple structure of a character, PC and/or NPC. The Universal Personality Profile is hexadecimal notation (letters and numbers) which makes prep super simple and scanning a character's abilities super simple. For example, in Traveller a basic, normal npc would have the following stats: 777777. Sevens across the board.
MEGS/DC Heroes/The Blood of Heroes has nine stats instead of Traveller's six. Also, The stats are arranged on the MEGS character sheet follows a grid with each row and column having some significance. Anyways, here would be the stat line for a normal person in the MEGS power scale of stats,
2 2 2
2 2 2
2 2 2
twos across the board. Here is how I would arrange them ala Traveller's UPP. [222-222-222], ini: 6.
Wala, anyone who plays MEGS is going to know what all these mean and how the grid is written out straight across (physical attributes, mental attribute, mystic attributes, etc.). I add the character's initiative total after the stat string. With attributes and initiative listed you really have all you need for any old NPC you need to make up on the fly!
