Luck basically shows how lucky your character is. The higher your character’s luck is the lucky your character is. Luck can be used for all sorts of situations, from determining encounters, to dealing with finding certain treasures, spoils after combat, and even barely surviving a potentially fatal situation. Luck is the main attributing stat in determining Save, Critical, treasure finds, and situations where only luck could prove as an explanation. Luck is a main stat, one which you will be placing stat points in when determining your character’s stats and throughout game play.

Will

Will is your character’s ability to withstand persuasions, influences, fear, and other mental attributes. The higher your character’s Will is, the more successful your character will be at maintaining self and not being influenced by outside forces. For example, if someone tries to persuade your character to do something your character does not wish to do, the game master may ask you to make a will check. You would roll percent dice, trying to reach whatever your Will stat is or below. If you succeed, you can continue playing your character not falling for their antics and doing whatever you rather do. However should you fail, your character would give in to the persuasion and do whatever that other character wanted your character to do, despite your wishes or your character’s wishes. The same can be said of events like fear, making a will check to see if your character can withstand the fear or runs away in fear. Will affects and determines your character's Influence, Endurance, and Grip. Will is a main stat, one which you will be placing stat points in when determining your character’s stats and throughout game play. When assigning stat points to Will, place the stat within the large Stat bubble.

  • Modifiers: This large field is for listing any modifiers that would affect Will.

  • With Mods: This is an optional field for you to place a complete stat number with any modifications added.
  • Influence: Influence shows how influential your character is. This is a stat that would come into play whenever you are trying to influence, convince, or even charm others. Having a high Influence could help your character negate social and cultural differences that might otherwise impede your character, and may help your character avoid sticky situations such as unwanted fights and jail time. Influence is 1/2 Will + 5.

React

React is how quickly your character to react to things taking place. This could be reacting to a trap being set, or to an enemy moving in your striking range for an Attack of Opportunity, or even to an attack itself. Reaction governs your character's Evade and Initiative. React is a main stat, one which you will be placing stat points in when determining your character’s stats and throughout game play. When assigning stat points to React, place the stat within the large Stat bubble.

  • With Mods: This is an optional field for you to place a complete stat number with any modifications added.
  • Initiative: Initiative is a stat which helps determine who will go first in battle. You will add it to whatever you roll on a 1d20 at the start of battle, and the one with the higher roll plus initiative goes first. Initiative is determined by React. Race and armor can affect Initiative. Your character's initiative stat is the first digit of your character's React stat. If your character's react is 8 (read as 08), your character's initiative would be 0. If your character's react is 38, your character's initiative would be 3.

Perceive

Perceive is your character’s chance at noticing things that are normally hard to notice. These things can be sounds that are hard to hear such as muffled communication or light foot steps, hard to see trip wires attached to traps, slight differences in your character’s surroundings, and so on. It is really up to the game master to determine what is hard to notice and if a perceive check is needed to notice something. Perception checks should never be needed to see, hear, or notice things that are easily noticed or very apparent, such as yelling, close loud gunshots or explosions, very apparent changes in scenery, and so forth. A failed perception check is usually interpreted to mean that the character was completely blind and unable to see the obvious. This is just not true. While the character would not notice something that is hard to notice in the first place with a failed perception check, the character would notice other things that are apparent. For example, the character may not notice the trip wire that sets off the trap but would notice the huge blade hanging from the ceiling that is the trap before setting it off. Perceive governs Hit Chance, Hit Targeting, Reveal, and Detect.  Perceive is a main stat, one which you will be placing stat points in when determining your character’s stats and throughout game play. When assigning stat points to Perceive, place the stat within the large Stat bubble.

  • Modifiers: This large field is for listing any modifiers that would affect Perceive.
  • Race Max: This is provided by your race and limits how high your stat can go. Basically, if you have a Race Max of 60, your Perceive stat can never go past 60. Runic Elements and Talents might affect your Race Max.
  • Reveal: Reveal is your character's ability to show something that is obscured, either by magical means or natural means. Reveal is 1/2 Perceive.
