    Lol, same! And then it showed my highest score as Networker — I think I confused it! :lol:

    I don’t think any of my numbers were above the 50’s which I think reflects that I like doing a variety of things in game, very much enjoy working with others to achieve a goal but sometimes just want to chill and explore on my own. My dominant subtype was Paragon but really I’m not a leader sort of person. Other than that it fits pretty well, but then so do aspects of several others listed here. 🤔

    It actually called me a ranger. I haven't been a ranger since the early 80s playing pen and paper d&d :smiley:
