Do Virtues that affect the way a character gains experience points – Wealthy, Secondary Insight, Elementalist, and so on – affect starting experience points?
Wealthy affects the starting experience points for a character as noted on p. 31 under “Later Life.” Note that magi are not allowed to take the Wealthy Virtue according to the Virtue’s description. As to the other Virtues, David Chart posted this explanation to the Berkeley mailing list: “This is the problem, and the reason why those Virtues don’t affect normal character generation. If you want the benefit, use Ridiculously Detailed And Obscenely Slow Character Generation — run your apprentice through all fifteen years of apprenticeship. That way you have enough information to apply the Virtues.” Without knowing exactly what your character was studying at each season of apprenticeship and from what source, there is really no way to know how many bonus experience points should be applied.
