The example character Kaane - either there's some rules I'm missing or it's riddled with errors. A human rogue with a 9 INT should start out with 16 skill points and then gain 3 per level. Best as I can tell Kaane starts with 14 and gains 4 at L2 and 6 at L3... I can't make him come out the way he's printed and the Errata claims that his weight's the only thing wrong.

Well, I wrote Kaane for the playtest, he is my character. The example is hindered by the D20 licence requirement of not being able to explain how to apply experince points. Here's the complete version:
Name: Kaane Haamasir
Abilities:
Str: 16, Dex: 11, Con: 14, Int: 9, Wis: 8, Cha: 16, Edu: 14, Soc:10
An energetic young man, not bright enough to keep from getting into problems, but charming enough to be able to talk his way out.
Race: Mixed Human. Gives +4 skill points at first level, and one extra feat.
Homeworld. Rolls a 6 on the World technology table, meaning Very High Technology homeworld. Rolls a 10 on the world trade classification giving a "Va Na" or Non-Agricultural Vacuum world. These worlds are usually mining and manufacturing centers run by a large interstellar corporation.
Kaane can add T/Computer to his class skill list, and selects T/Mechanical and T/Communications from the Non-Agricultural list and Astrogation from the Vacuum world list. These skills become class skill regardless of which class Kaane selects.
Kaane gets the following feats: Vehicle/Grav, Vacc Suit and selects Low Gravity Adaptation from the world list.

Staminia is rolled as 8, Kaane has stamina 10 and lifeblood 14.
