How to: Stats

Stats are an important part of your character. They describe your character's properties and general abilities. They also provide you with boosts to certain aspects.

STR
Strength – A person's’ ability to exert physical force. It measures the brutish brawn of a person, as well as their ability to use weapons that require strong muscles. It increases the raw power of physical attacks. Generally speaking, weapons that pack considerable punch - like explosives, blunt weapons or heavy weapons - scale with STR.
1. Your heart is beating and your lungs are pumping. That’s about all your body can do though as you lack the muscle power to move anything else at all.
2. You can barely move, but you might as well be a stick, or a brittle feather. Whatever that is.
3. You can move, and you can do some general stuff. But you’re definitely not all that capable at doing anything besides basic interactions.
4. You’re weaker than the average person, but you can manage. With some know-how, you can even handle yourself in a fight.
5. The average human being can lift 70 kilogrammes. So can you.
6. You’ve got some abs, shows your semi-regular gym visits do you well.
7. You take your physical strength seriously and it shows in how powerful you are.
8. You eat an entire can of whey every hour to maintain the absolute unit that you are.
9. You no longer have abs or nice looking muscles. It’s begun to become a bit weird looking. As if you’ve got giant swollen bee stings all over you. But hey, at least you can pummel anyone to death with your bare fists easily.
10. It’s not even pronounced muscles any more. It’s just all pure muscle, covered by skin. Even your bones, your organs. They’ve all been consumed by the protein shakes.
10+. You posses strength to super-viro levels.

DEX
Dexterity – A person's’ ability to move elegantly and with grace. Useful for sneaking around, as well as using the more delicate and flashy weaponry. Dexterous people attack faster, and dodge attacks with ease.Generally speaking, quick weapons such as swords, knives and submachine guns scale with DEX.
1. You have to be moved by wheelchair, and fed by a helper, since you can’t move any of your body parts.

This stat tracks your ability to stay alive despite injuries as well as the amount of skills you can utilize. VIT/2 = your total HP, which accounts for how many major injuries you can survive. VITx1.25 = your BP (Body Point) gain per level-up, which can be used to buy skill slots.

INT
Intelligence – The ability to calculate and refer to logic in order to solve complex problems is a virtue to hold dear. It is an important part to the learning of new spells/skills and the use of complex spells that require high INT. It also determines how many spells and skills you can know. The later is accounted for through SP (skill/spell points). For each skill or spell you want to learn, you'll need equal SP in accordance to the level of the spell/skill to attain it. Your SP gain is calculated per level; [ LVL x(0.2xINT) = SP ]. Every time you level up, you gain more SP, with your INT accounting to the modifier of that point gain. The maximum gain is capped at 20 points up to level 10, and 40 points beyond that level.
1. Not to insult the flauna out there, but you’re basically a plant.
2. You have the mental capacity of an infant and it shows.
3. You have a cognitive disability, which makes thinking quite hard for you.

EMO
Emotionality – A person’s control over their emotions, as well as their strength, are heavily intertwined with the use of magic. It affects the power of spells. Most, but not all, types of magic scale with EMO. Having a higher EMO will thus mean that spells you use have a higher attack score.
1. You’re in a constant state of a complete mental breakdown.

SAU
Soul and aura - The driving force of any person. The strength of one’s soul and aura determines how much mana they can have, and how quickly it regenerates. It also determines your mental ability to persist through trauma. Your SAU directly translates to the amount of MP (Magic points) gained every level, which are used to buy spell slots.
