And sadly, the only other artifact I still have from the game is the cards for generating a character's physical adjectives. The way it worked was you drew three cards, and then chose one grouping of adjectives from each of them. If the resulting list of adjectives had any that were defined as opposites, they cancelled each other out. (So the journal entry is in error. You could end up with fewer than three physical adjectives.) If the list had two of the same adjective, you wrote it into your character as a "Very". And then you chose personality adjectives from a list, filling out your character so you had exactly ten total adjectives.
I remember putting a lot of work into the adjectives, defining opposite pairs, making the various groupings of physical adjectives for the cards, creating the list of personality adjectives, and listing out various "skills" and which adjectives helped and which hindered. Unfortunatly, beyond the cards, that stuff is lost.
The cards tell a lot though:
