I would use the Limited Wish to improve Strength and the Limited Wish to eliminate Nervous Twitch.
But they're yours to use as you see fit, so try whatever you want with them.

Can 6 bp of talents be picked up with a Limited wish in the opposite of eliminating a flaw?

Interesting; not explicitly cited anywhere that I've seen and I have most of the published HM stuff (apart from the Existential Evil module which is about $150, i.e. too expensive.)

How about this: you can choose the number of quirks and flaws that you want to roll (1, 2 or 3) and you get twice as many BP as they would give you. (Warning, you have no BP to buy back a roll, so only 1 re-roll if you're in GH and that would use your Mulligan from the next "session", i.e. after you get back to Namaran.)

Afterthought: On thinking about it though, using up the (next session's) Mulligan that way that isn't a huge loss as you're about to auto-level (after you make these wishes from the treasure xp) and then at Level 2 you drop out of GH.

Ok, Temp Honor
from the sheet: +21 (-1 bandit ignored him, +9 finishing bandit fight? +6 tick fight -1 taunt? +8 final blow? +2 for Level-up to Th2)
from the above post: -6 (+1 favor to polly, +2 snack run, -1 advantage?, -6 insult, +2 chapter end)
Balance Temp Honor: +15
[Let me know if any of these were redundant]
15 x1.25 = 3.75
Actual Honor = 20 + 3.75? (or does it round?)
honor die stays at 1d4, but no longer in Bonus Zone for Great Honor.

XPs:
general: 1750 (400+1000+150+200) => 875/875
mage only: 150 (100 sleep, 50 skills)
Does the great honor bonus drop off before xp awarded for the end of the session (thus no 5% xp boost) or after?

If bonus applies:
Gen: 1750 x1.05 = 1837 => 918/918
mage: 150 x1.05 = 157
= > 1,075/918 + 3,156/ 1,251
=> 4,231/2,169


If no bonus for GH
4,181/2,126

Lol. I need to train mage before I reset and lose 2500 xp :p
how much does that cost again? (Yay, more debt. Just like real life student loans!) I suppose i need to go to Prompeldia for that?

Honour calculation always rounds down, but I'm going to give you +1 for doing all the housekeeping so efficiently, so this time add +4 actual honour to char sheet.
Majority was gained while in GH. (RAW it's actually grey area, so in practice I tend to go with whether I 'feel' it's deserved or not.)
So, yes, deserved, apply GH fo xp.

Traing for BBI is 1500gps (times current level) plus the fee for a concurrent taining course paid for in advance.
Loans are available but will detract from honour and incur interest.
Training schools (kobars) are available all over the place (effectively off stage left).
There is a University in Prompeldia that would give you, as a native', a significant discount, varies between 15% and 25%

Please add this to your char sheet.

Crap, forgot thief 10% bonus to xp

Ok, so that would be
Gen: (1750 +154)x1.05 = 1999 => 999/999x1.1 => 999/1099
mage: 150 x1.05 = 157
= > 1,156/1099 + 3,156/ 1,251
=> 4,312/ 2,350
