how would aspurgers syndrome be expresed in medeival times?
Just the rules please,not the medeival terms for it please!
Depending upon the time, place and severity of the ailment I imagine it would've been likely been construed as either evidence of being under the power of a demon/faerie/witch or simply as stupidity.
Edit: If you meant creating a character with the trait, I think it could probably accomplished by penalizing taking a low Communication score and selecting an appropriate compliment of Personality Traits...
ok then
It's spelt Asperger's, by the way. As it's named for the doctor who 'discovered' it.
I know of atleast one player who declared it was effectively the Magical Air flaw 
I'd call it a Social Handicap, as the Flaw.
I agree!
ditto.
Althought to go folklorisitc, all forms of autism* were seen as being Faerie Touched.
- Yes, it is. Check the new version of DSM IV. .
I agree with what the others have said.
It might also depend on your social status a bit. A noble with Asperger's Syndrome will likely be treated differently to a peasant with it.
noit nessarally
