[deadlyfire2345]

The rolls are done, but I do have a question since the SIAMS penalties would apply to the event roll.

Is the even roll penalty based on what traits I have at that point, or based on what I intend on ending with?

"Events: Apply a -1 to all Events rolls for this path unless the character has Fast Learner, which negates penalty.
Slow Learners gain an additional -1 to rolls. On the Academy Events table, a result of 16 must be
substituted for immediate entry into the mandatory Special Training Subpath below."

This would turn my 20 I rolled into an actual 20, vs an 18 with the penalties.

Was thinking between 2 others though if I can:
15 Your family is known for excellent service to the State. You follow in their footsteps and are rewarded. [Good
Reputation, Vehicle (4), Owns Vehicle]
or
17 You graduated top of your class. [+2 to any four skills, Good Reputation, choose one of the following: Fast
Learner, Vehicle (3) or Combat Sense; may take OCS training next and then return and continue Life Path from
here]
