 Most of the games I run where the players make characters inevitably
 ends up with the phrases "Okay, I'll be the templar of the party, who
 wants to play the syker?".  Sometimes I think they need to be reminded
 that these things are relatively rare and are sometimes rather cautious
 to work with each other.  This isn't a complaint to anyone in
 particular, but I was just wondering if i was the only one who felt
 this...

yeah, i agree. my character started as a road warrior. normal guy, had a 
shotfun.happy overall. then my marshal informs me that since I drew a red 
joker, i had an arcane background. not having one, My marshal gave me syker 
powers, so i use them.  The same thing happened when I played 'Star Wars" 
everyone was force sensitive and way too powerful, and above all, they never 
did what jedis should do. It was always "I'm a technician who owns a 
mechacorporation ....oh yeah, I'm also a jedi."
