The one way most scientists gauge self-awareness is whether or not the subject can recognize their reflection as themselves as opposed to another animal. With animals, it can be a bit tricky to determine as they can't talk. However, one test is to put a mark on the animal which the animal cannot see but will be reflected in a mirror. Elephants have demonstrated recognition of their reflection by exploring the mark on their own head, not the elephant in the mirror, using the mirror to find it. So, elephants are self aware.

Commissar: "...The Party teaches that only the Communist way can show the true path through the tunnels..."

Soldier: "Comrade Commissar, what does the party teach about the two-headed mutants that roam the Frontline?"

Commissar: "Um... er..."

Soldier: "Well, so much for the entertainment"

Commisar: "SILENCE!!!"

Fisherman Joe, with his Fishing-16, decides to only spent two hours on a lake during the Fall. However, he also has a nice kit, which gives +1 to Skill. His effective Skill, then, is 12 (-5 for time, +1 for equipment). Were he to roll 9, he would multiply that Margin of Success of 3 by 2 lbs. Six pounds worth of fish, which would about feed a person for a day.

Hm. I thought HERO was "Champions" prior to a certain edition? Basically, wasn't it called "HERO 4th Edition"? All I know of the system is 5th Edition onwards.
