Yes, but if the character is currently missing 10 points of DEX then he still is missing 10 points of DEX (but now it's 10 points missing from the new total).

Re: drain

 

Let's assume the character had an 18 STR (a bit easier to deal with than DEX fopr illustrative purposes), and has been drained 6 points, so he now has a 12 STR. It recovers 5 points per year.

 

The player has 3 XP and wants to buy up his STR. I don't see any reason he can't do so. I would note the following, however:

 

- his figured characteristics weren't changed by the Drain, so he would compute these on the basis that he now has a 21 STR. As a result, his PD and REC don't change, but he does get +2 STUN.

 

- he now has a 21 STR, with 6 drained. If he is playing under Normal Characteristics Maxima, he has to pay 4 points, rather than 3, since the 21st point would cost double.
