Thank you very much! I appreciate it.
Heh. I have the next update ready, but I was holding back just in case people want to change their votes. It doesn't seem like that's happened very much. In fact, some more people have voted, doubling down on 'low durability'. There are twice as many votes for "I was a sickly child" than for any other possible answer to "What would you say is your greatest weakness?"
What do you think, people? Should I close the vote and post the next update? Or wait a bit?
EDIT: I just figured out how to add a vote tally to posts on the new version of Sufficient Velocity.

Just got a chance to get back on the forums and read the benefits and drawbacks. I thought the low durability was just low HP.

Well that makes everything change.

Unfortunately it's not a good enough tradeoff in any case for RP reasons D:

Actions in this quest are based around the main character's academic timetable.
This is basically what it will look like:
As you can see, you get three slots per day, some of which are already filled in. On week days, you're supposed to have a lesson in the morning and a study period in the afternoon. The rest of the slots are 'free'. At the beginning of each week, you get to decide what to do with your free slots. (It's also possible to skive off lessons and/or study periods in order do something else, but doing so has consequences.)
For example, you might use a free slot to socialize with your fellow pupils, explore the castle, study some more, join a club (note: certain clubs are only available during certain time slots), sneak out of school, and so on.
However, depending on how high your Durability is, you'll to spend some of your free slots doing nothing but resting. For example, if you're a 'sickly child' with Durability 1, you'll need to rest for 5 slots per week or gain a Fatigue point (which will give you a '-1 penalty' to all of your skill checks). Alternatively, if you've already gained a Fatigue point, you'll need to rest for another 5 slots to get rid of it. Certain actions may count towards the total number of slots you've spent resting. For example, after you've made friends, spending time with them can be a source of comfort for you.
Here's a table to show the relationship between Durability and how much rest you need:
Yeah, anyone with 'Durability 6' is approaching superhuman levels of stamina. They can still get Fatigue points from other sources (e.g. injury), but under most circumstances they can work for as long as they like and never get tired.
It's possible to have more than one Fatigue point. Each Fatigue point will give you a ' -1 penalty' to all of your skill checks. So, for example, if you've racked up 3 Fatigue points, you'll get a '-3 penalty' to all of your skill checks.
However, having high Willpower enables you to ignore Fatigue penalties to an extent. Here's another table to explain how:
(I only just learned how to use tables on Sufficient Velocity and now I'm addicted. Can't get enough of them.)
So, if you're a 'very determined' lad with Willpower 3, you can ignore the penalty from 1 point of Fatigue. And if you've racked up 2 points of Fatigue, you'll only get a ' -1 penalty', and so on.
Anyone with 'Willpower 6' never suffers from Fatigue penalties and can keep going until they collapse with exhaustion. (If you ever have a number of Fatigue points that exceeds your Durability by more than double, you'll collapse with exhaustion and there's a pretty good chance you'll die.)
So yeah, the moral of this story is... everyone needs downtime! Work hard, play hard, and make sure you get a good rest afterwards!
EDIT: Apparently the new Sufficient Velocity automatically deletes spaces between hyphens and the previous word, which is annoying when I'm using them to represent minuses. I've had to put speech marks around each of the penalties I've described in this post, otherwise a "-1 penalty" looks like "a-1 penalty", which doesn't make sense.
This is basically what it will look like:
| Day 1 | Day 2 | Day 3 | Day 4 | Day 5 | Day 6 | Day 7 |
| Lesson: Ritual Magic | Lesson: Literacy | Lesson: Alchemy | Lesson: Ritual Magic | Lesson: Literacy | Free | Free |
| Study Period | Study Period | Study Period | Study Period | Study Period | Free | Free |
| Free | Free | Free | Free | Free | Free | Free |

Here's a table to show the relationship between Durability and how much rest you need:

| 1 | 5 |
| 2 | 4 |
| 3 | 3 |
| 4 | 2 |
| 5 | 1 |
| 6 | 0 |
It's possible to have more than one Fatigue point. Each Fatigue point will give you a ' -1 penalty' to all of your skill checks. So, for example, if you've racked up 3 Fatigue points, you'll get a '-3 penalty' to all of your skill checks.
However, having high Willpower enables you to ignore Fatigue penalties to an extent. Here's another table to explain how:
| Willpower | How many Fatigue points you can ignore |
| 1 | 0 |
| 2 | 0 |
| 3 | 1 |
| 4 | 2 |
| 5 | 3 |
| 6 | All of them |
So, if you're a 'very determined' lad with Willpower 3, you can ignore the penalty from 1 point of Fatigue. And if you've racked up 2 points of Fatigue, you'll only get a ' -1 penalty', and so on.

Decided to edit my vote. I thought it might be fun to have a character with a weak constitution since you rarely see that, but having fewer actions is too much of a downside. Many quests I've been in the MC ends up strapped for actions, and I don't want to contribute to that.

Everything's a trade-off. It would take years for you to reach 'Durability 6' and 'Willpower 6'. If you focused on those two abilities and nothing else, eventually you'd be great at working all day and ignoring fatigue, but you wouldn't be very good at anything else.
Also, there are (potentially) two extra slots per day which you can unlock by staying up late at night instead of going to bed. However, using either of these slots causes you to automatically gain a fatigue point. Which you might want to do eventually if, for example, you're cramming for a test. I can understand that; I was a student, once.
(Even at Durability 6, you might need to spend a slot to rest if you've been injured or you've stayed up late all night. At Durability 6, each slot you spend on resting will enable you to recover from 2 points of Fatigue.)
Yeah, I didn't include the night-time slots in your academic timetable because the protagonist is only eleven years old, too young to be getting into bad habits. Maybe in a few years' time.
I'm going to leave the vote open until tomorrow, then I'll update. We'll see what happens.
Hmm. I might try a different way of counting the votes, totalling the pluses and minuses together to work out which abilities you want to increase or decrease. Let me try this...
EDIT: Wait, what? I wanted it to count up the votes the same way as before. Why has it changed? I didn't want it to do that.
Ugh, that's going to make this more difficult... but I'll work it out anyway.
17 people have voted for "I'm very determined." (+1 Willpower)
10 people have voted for "I'm a quick learner." (+1 Insight)
4 people have voted for "I'm cute. That usually gets me what I want." (+1 Charisma)
2 people have voted for "I've been through a lot already. But I've survived." (+1 Durability)
1 person has voted for "I'm big and strong for my age." (+1 Strength)
1 person has voted for "Magic comes easily to me." (+1 Magic)
16 people have voted for "I was a sickly child." (-1 Durability)
13 people have voted for "I'm small and puny." (-1 Strength)
3 people have voted for "I'm very shy." (-1 Charisma)
1 person has voted for "I'm indecisive and easily-led." (-1 Willpower)
1 person has voted for "Sometimes I don't understand what's going on." (-1 Insight)
1 person has voted for "I'm magically weak. But don't tell anyone." (-1 Magic)
So, these are the totals:
| Ability | Points total |
| Agility | 0 |
| Charisma | 1 |
| Durability | -14 |
| Insight | 9 |
| Magic | 0 |
| Strength | -12 |
| Willpower | 16 |
See you tomorrow!

NO! Perfect time to get into bad habits!
Yeah looking at the wording, people might mostly be going for a 'weak' character, without knowing that low durability robs the MC of one of the most valuable resources in an action economy (actions!).

All right, in my attempts to get a version of the vote tally that I could actually read, I accidentally deleted my last post. Ugh...
Vote closed. I might have to count up the votes manually because the vote tally is a heap of festering crap.
EDIT: Nope, I think I've got it. Finally...
Well, I think enough people have changed their votes that Durability is no longer the most popular 'weakness'.

It is possible to train your stats to an extent, but this is limited by the fact that the protagonist is only eleven years old. Otherwise, you gain a +1 increase to one of your stats per year while you're still growing up.
Anyway...
29 people voted for "I'm a boy."
8 people voted for "I'm a girl."
21 people voted for "I have elven blood."
10 people voted for "I'm a Sambian pureblood."
5 people voted for "I have goblin blood."
1 person voted for "I have Kaflor blood."
1 person voted for "I have Wranni blood."
18 people voted for "I'm very determined." (+1 Willpower)

4 people voted for "I'm cute. That usually gets me what I want." (+1 Charisma)

1 person voted for "Sometimes I don't understand what's going on." (-1 Insight)
1 person voted for "I'm magically weak. But don't tell anyone." (-1 Magic)
Deducting the negative numbers from the positive, these are the totals:
| Ability | Points total |
| Agility | 0 |
| Charisma | 0 |
| Durability | -11 |
| Insight | 9 |
| Magic | 0 |
| Strength | -17 |
| Willpower | 17 |
The main character is a boy with elven blood. He is very determined, but small and puny.
(Note: because you have elven blood, you get a racial bonus of +1 to Magic. Elves are magical beings, created by magic. Their descendents usually inherit some of their magical power.)
All right, let's continue the Character Creation process...
"You have elven blood? How curious. That's very unusual. Which one of your parents…?" There is a moment of awkward silence. "Ahh, you do have parents, don't you, boy?"
How do you reply?
[] "No, I'm an orphan. I don't remember my parents."
OR
[] "I don't want to talk about my parents. I was taken as a slave to pay off one of their debts."
-[] "Yes, I'm technically a slave. My new 'owner' thought that this would be a good investment."
OR
[] "My mother works in a tavern. I never knew my father. Apparently, he was one of her patrons."
-[] "I don't know if this is true, but I've heard rumours that he was a very famous elf. Probably the most famous elf there has ever been."
--[] "They call him 'Red Ruin'. I mean, you must have heard of him: he defeated the Demon Lord Kolhinon in single combat!"
OR
[] "It's hard to tell if either of my parents has elven blood. Down in the roots of my family tree, maybe, one of my ancestors was an elf, but… well, it must have been a long time ago. I guess I'm a throwback."
OR
[] "I don't remember my parents. To be honest, I don't remember much of anything before I came to this school."
Plot hooks galore! Please take one.
Yes, the Sambian Empire practises slavery. The actual treatment of slaves varies from place to place, but it's closer to debt bondage than the chattel slavery practised in (for example) the USA before the abolition of slavery in 1865.
In the Sambian Empire, most slaves are either prisoners taken in war or people who have pledged themselves in payment of a debt. The children of slaves are not automatically enslaved as soon as they are born, owners don't have power of life and death over their slaves, and there is supposed to be a way for slaves to earn their freedom after they've laboured for long enough to pay off their debts. However, because many people in authority are corrupt, negligent, or uncaring, this system is very open to abuse.
Their ongoing practice of slavery is something that causes a lot of friction between the Sambian Empire and neighbouring countries. Around the world, many people believe that slavery is not only morally wrong but blasphemous as well; the creator of humanity, Telthalus, was a god of freedom. According to the most generous interpretations of his legend, Telthalus sacrificed himself so that humans would be free of the Elder Gods who sought to rule over them eternally; he only wanted his children to be free. Therefore, the continued existence of slavery is "like spitting in the face of our god."

"Now, this is a rather sensitive topic. Forgive me, I know this isn't something people like to discuss – the mere mention of it makes me feel rather uncouth – but I'm afraid that it's necessary. Despite generous subsidy from the city government, your attendance at this school is not free. To pay for the school's running costs, tuition, your bed and board, and so on, we require each student to pay a sum of one hundred and twenty-six silver shards per annum. A very reasonable price, I might add. Only three silvers for each week of the school year, not counting holidays. So, if it's not an impertinent question, might I ask… how will you be paying for it?"
How do you reply?
[] "I told you: my 'owner' thinks that this is a good investment."
-[] "It means I have to pay him back even more before I can earn my freedom."
--[] "Or I could take advantage of his 'generosity', learn everything I need to know, and then turn him into a newt. It would mean I'd have to spend the rest of my life as a wanted criminal, on the run from the law, but… it might be worth it."

OR
[] "To be honest, I don't know who's paying for it. But someone is. Isn't that enough?"
Remember, these 'Character Creation' posts are not part of the official canon, so anything you say won't be used against you later on. (For example, if you choose the option "My 'rich uncle' is paying for it. And by 'rich uncle' I mean 'he's a mob boss'" that doesn't mean you've foolishly admitted to a member of the school staff that you're working for the mafia-equivalent.
