The following are free things that everyone gets, a net +20 value for your character.  

The Youth Disadvantage       -10pnts

Whatever your true background, you are considered a teenager by society. There are things you can not legally do and others that are simply against social norms. You have a -2 reaction from all adults when you are being serious. “You’re just a kid.”  Also your parents or legal guardian have certain rights over you. Your family may be rich but it’s not your money –yet. No wealth level above comfortable is allowed.

The Friends Advantage         10pnts

Almost everyone has a few friends, 2 to 4; these points represent your long time pals. Use the Contacts rules P44, with effective skill 12 and frequency of appearance ‘quite often’. In many ways they act like Allies, however their point values would make them Dependents. They are average teenagers not super heroes.
