Universal "Character" Profile??

[Gruffty]

Greetings fellow sophonts

Can anyone tell me which ruleset uses the term Univerversal Character Profile (UCP) in place of the more usual term of Profile Universal Personality Profile (UPP)?

I know that CT, MT and T4 *don't* - is this a TNE term?

Just checked, Gruffty, TNE p20 quotes UPP.
Perhaps GT?

 

[Gruffty]

Hmmmm, thanks for that Icosahedron

I'll check my GT book. The reason I ask is that someone has posted UCP in the Traveller Wikia (not the one here, the other one) and I've never heard of the UPP being called a UCP before. So before I go a-choppin'-and-a-changin' I thought I'd get my facts right

I've only checked the character conversion chapter, but GT doesn't use either term, it just converts the individual characteristics.

Possibly the Wikia poster was getting confused with Universal Craft Profile?

It's possible, but the individual seems quite insistent that the term UCP can be used. I'd certainly never heard of it prior to it being posted on the Wikia.

I've seen it in print, but can't tell you where.

note that, in MT, UCP is Universal Craft Profile.
