Allow narrators select Strengths and Weaknesses from those that exist
Reading through the starter stories, I expected that I'd be able to select these.

We’ve just redesigned the character creation process so that when a player selects a Character Type from one of our starter worlds, the corresponding suggested Strength and Weakness cards are also automatically selected. This functionality is not yet available for custom worlds but it will be in the future!

There is a bug with the way this has been implemented: If I start with one of your starter worlds, but then Edit one of the Nature cards, the system still automatically chooses the Strength and Weakness associated with the previous description.
Let me elaborate:
1. I load the Cyberpunk world. The Razorkid suggests strength Deadly Accuracy and weakness Cold-Hearted.
2. I think the Razorkid should be Angry, so I edit the last line from "Suggested Weakness: Cold-Hearted" to "Suggested Weakness: Angry".
3. When a player chooses the Razorkid, the system still populates Cold-Hearted, not Angry.
I understand that you can't let us adjust that right now, but I think you should add a warning that, if we want to change a card, we have to create a NEW card from scratch to do so -- otherwise, your system will just overrule whatever changes we make.

Sure thing. When you turn over the character cards, they all have Suggested Strengths and Weaknesses. I think that's a nice touch. My expectation was that this was a requirement and that the system allowed you to select one or more strengths or weaknesses that were then added to the character description.
