Is "birth chart" some stupid astrology bullshit?
That or they were in the NICU? Which admittedly, your NICU chart might be a great way to explain things....
It's definitely an astrology thing, although I took it to be figurative rather than literal.
You see I was born under The Steed sign so I run away from my problems all the time.
I see your using your bonus to movement speed well.
Prolly another way of saying birth certificate. Naming your child 'abcde' 'sheithead' or 'Liam' can have lifelong detrimental effects.

Honestly? I just wanted an opportunity to poke fun at the name Liam.
That's fair :)
It is, but I read it as a shorthand way of saying "explaining all of the attributes I was born with". Perhaps that's my incorrect reading, but that's what I got from it.
