At first I thought "Finland is closer to Atlantic Ocean than USA" meant that "Finland is further from the USA than from the Atlantic Ocean". Then I got what you really meant.

Yeah. That was a bit unclear.

Forgot to mention that the exchange student I talked about earlier believes that aliens have visited (or are currently on) earth, because her cousin has seem some.

To be fair, that's not a stupid statement.

Believing that your cousin has seen aliens probably is.

Indeed. I believe aliens have quite possibly visited Earth, as evidenced with the recent human obsession with 'Ancient Aliens' and all that shit,* but I don't think anyone alive today has met them.

*Has anyone else noticed how many video games/movies/tv shows have gone the Ancient Alien route? Prometheus, Assassin's Creed, The Herpaderp- er History Channel, etc?

Yes I have seen that. Only thing is, why visit?

Why do citizens of first world countries sometimes take a holiday in the third world?

This would be a good time for me to go indepth about attributes.

Attributes:

Strength: Pretty simple, the amount of power and muscle a character can put into an action. This mainly effects hand-to-hand combat, grappling, throwing, and so on.

Agility/Speed: The rate at which your character can move. Effects running and dodging.

Endurance/Toughness: How long your character can last doing an activity. Effects long-distance running, and prolonged fighting/magic use.

Magic: How well your character can control magical based spells and incantations. Effects magic and summoning.

Tactics: How well your character can utilize Friendly NPCs.

Intelligence: The amount of mind-power your character can put into solving problems. Effects logic, electronics and healing.

Precision: Your characters ability to see things. Effects spotting things on the battlefield and long-range attacks.

Spontaneity: This rare trait gives your character the ability to do things out of nowhere. Gives them a +0.2 in all traits.

Stealth: How well your character can sneak around unseen to the enemies. Stealth attacks get bonuses!

Explosives: How well your character can utilize explosives objects. Effects rockets, bombs, grenades, and so on.

Incendiaries:  How well your character can utilize fire-based attacks. Effects flamethrowers, fireballs, and so forth.

Finesse: This trait effects how your character does on one-on-one dueling scenarios.

Brutality: Effects how 'messy' the wounds your character inflicts are. Effects bleeding.

Firearms: How well (or at least creatively) your character can wield firearms. Effects guns.

Teamwork: Found only in group-characters. Effects how well your group can co-ordinate team-based actions.

Area-of-Effect: How well your character can attack more than one enemy simultaneously. Effects explosives, and large physical/magic attacks.

Improvised Weapons: This determines if your character can find any objects to use as new weapons on the battlefield. Utilize sticks, stones, bricks, tires, and anything you can find on the battlefield not listed as a weapon.

Evolution: If a character has this, it means after fighting for a while, they will be able to ascend to a more powerful form.

Horseback Riding: How well your character can ride and preform actions on horses. Fun fact: A character with a +1 in this is skilled in riding ponies!

I'd also like to take this time to point out that Theodore Roosevelt and Lawrence Taylor both have Special Abilities that neither of them have used so far. (Teddy has Rally, and Lawrence has Super-Tackle.)

And so many characters, it's like a sitcom! It's like Full House, except with more genocide and lesbians. So it has nothing to do with Full House! New Turn incoming soon.
