The man was a randy goat surrounded by eternally youthful nymphomaniac redheads. You think it's not a porn star name?

And one of those eternally youthful nymphomaniac redheads was his mother, and most of the others were his sisters and/or daughters. Of course it's a porn star name. ;)

That whole family had no sexual taboos.

Sounds like I should post one:

ST 10
DX 10ish
IQ 14
HT 11
Perception 18

Animal Empathy

Phobia (fnord)
Reputation -1 (Police)
SoD (fnord)
Struggling

Quirk: Flamboyant
Quirk: Vulgar

I may add skills later if needed...
I'm guessing this is Ace Ventura, with an SoD to dolphins and a Phobia of bats.

That wss my thought, but the IQ threw me; there's no way Ace Ventura is that smart. Frankly, he'd be struggling to make a 10.

He is remarkably skilled and knowledgeable for a dunce, and not just about animals. I think his "stupidity" is better framed in terms of disadvantages, especially of the odious personal habit variety.

Ace Ventura, despite his behavior didn't strike me as "dumb", at least not less so than a typical person (compared to, for example Lloyd in Dumb and Dumber). He honestly seems to know quite a bit and can be perceptive and an able detective. His behavior seemed more like personality and emotional issues than lack of intelligence, IMO (Well, and the movies being comedies, if course). He's a more a weirdo than an idiot, IMO.

Though I suppose you could drop is IQ to more average levels and raise his skills. That seems to be general sticky point with GURPS.

Or both at once. Kids nowadays think things like Transhuman Space are the source of sci-fi fetish fuel — ha!

Don't even get me started on the logical aftermath of Children of the Lens...
