Power Score

**Attributes** are statistics that measure the ability of an intrinsic trait that a character can possess. In this role-play there are seven attributes that are inherent to all characters made. These seven attributes operate off of a twenty-point scale. The first half represents common levels of ability, while the latter half represents Peak-Human potential. The seven attributes, and their meanings, are as follows below.

* **Strength.** Determines a character's physical strength.
* **Dexterity.** Determines a character's physical agility. Also determines how fast a character can move within a single post.
* **Endurance.** Determines a character's ability to endure and sustain injuries.
* **Intelligence.** Determines a character's problem-solving ability.
* **Wisdom.** Determines a character's sense of judgement.

## Strength

**Strength** determines how physically strong a character is. The number of points in this attribute is indicative of this value, as with all other attributes. Characters with a high Strength attribute tend to be knights, strong warriors clad in armor capable of wielding bastard swords with enough strength to cut through a man's chest. Strength is also a shared attribute with Dexterity and Size.

## Dexterity

**Dexterity** determines how physically agile a character is. This includes a character's general speed, as well as their ability in accuracy and dodging incoming attacks. While in the same realm as Strength, characters with high Dexterity attributes tend to be the opposite type of warrior. Quick on their feet, and relying on their movement and speed to weave through attacks and strike at the weaknesses of their foes.

### Speed

**Speed** is a sub-attribute of Dexterity. While Dexterity refers to overall agility, Speed specifically refers to a character's movement speed in battle. Every one point in Dexterity is equivalent to two feet per second (FPS) that a character can run within a single post.

### Shared With Strength

Dexterity is a shared attribute with Strength. This means that the 2 attributes are directly affected by one another. In total, a character can only have 30 points shared between the two stats (bonuses withstanding). This means, at maximum the shared traits can only have 15 points in each Attribute. However, giving or taking points from either area and allocating it to the other will allow a person to excel in one area, while being diminished in the other. In example, Character A possesses 30 points (the total amount of points a character can have in both areas.) They choose to put 18 points into their Strength, and putting the remainder into their dexterity, which would be 12 points.

## Endurance

**Endurance** determines a character's ability to withstand injury and exert themselves over time. All men bleed the same, but not all can still fight while doing so. Characters with a high Endurance are especially dangerous, as they do not give in so easily in the fevered pitch of battle. They could take a lethal stab in a gut, and still get up with the last of their strength to exact their revenge before perishing.

## Intelligence

**Intelligence** determines how smart a character is and their ability to solve problems. The Intelligence stat also gives them a means to apply said intelligence in RP. When a character with Intelligence deals with a problem, and their intelligence matches up to the DC (difficulty class), then the DM will provide a suggestion as to how to overcome the problem. The higher their intelligence is compared to the DC, the more suggestions there are and the higher their quality of outcome. Characters with a high intelligence are typically among the maesters or well-versed lords and ladies. Intelligence shares a relationship with the Wisdom stat, much like Strength and Dexterity share with one another.

## Wisdom

**Wisdom** determines a character's sense of judgement and their spirituality. Similar to Intelligence, Wisdom is a stat that is applied in RP through circumstance. Particularly with situations regarding Wisdom's area; like the ability to tell if someone is lying or even having enough spirituality to tap into the mystical aspects of the world. The higher a character's Wisdom, the better suggestions they'll receive that will affect their outcome better.

### Shared With Intelligence

Much like the relationship between Strength and Dexterity, Intelligence and Wisdom are also shared attributes. This means that there is a total amount that is to be shared between them. Just as it is for Strength and Dexterity, this limit is 30 points. Meaning at max, these 2 attributes only have 15 points in each. The exact amount allotted to each other depends on the character, so long as the maximum remains the same.
