I Have A Character Concept

I have a mage idea that's just a name and a fragment of a back story.

Malcom the Incompetent.

Due to a gap in his education, he learned that flammable and inflammable mean the same thing, but missed that the 'in' prefix normally doesn't work that way.

By the time he'd learned his mistake, he'd been insisting on the moniker for years. 

He will, of course, be a competent mage.

    As you've probably figured long ago, I don't play with Gurps and practically no games whatsoever, but... "Malcom the Incompetent" and his backstory about flammable and inflammable is epically great.

    To borrow a phrase from Monty Python (I think), "I bow in your general direction!"
