I have a question on creating a new character. You get two random talents with the starting career....on one of them I rolled Lightning Reflexes, which is +5% to your Agility. Its a Diletante and he only has +5% as a possible advance in agility, the Lightning Reflexes count to that right, even though its random starting talent?

Lightning Reflexes says:

You gain a permanent +5% bonus to your Agility Characteristic. Modify your starting profile to reflect this bonus.

So when you get Lightning Reflexes, you add +5% to your starting Agility, not your current Agility. Your current Agility is always calculated by adding any advances you've taken to your starting Agility.
