Stats

Stats are basic descriptors of Physical, Mental, and Social attributes of your Character. In order to imply the nature of a typical human being from our world i've made up three basic stats in each category.

Physical Stats
STR "Strength" how big and strong you are.
CRD "Coordination" your finesse and graces. Dexterity and Agility.
END "Endurance" how tough and healthy you are.

Social Stats
CHR "Charisma" your bearing and social charm.
PER "Personality" how you affect others. Empathy and Manipulation.
CMP "Composure" how you remain unaffected by others.

Mental Stats
IQ "Intelligence" how smart you are. Memory and comprehension level.
ACT "Acuity" how streetsmart you are. Your wits and perceptions.
WILL "Willpower" how mentally tough you are.

  • Stats are generic ways to describe your character for comparison to other 'typical humans'.
  • Each group is assigned a Dice Size depending on what degree of talent the Character shows:
Level of Talent Dice Size (Dx)
Untalented D4
Average D6
Talented D8
World Class D10
Supernatural D12
  • Each category is ranked from 1-5 by ranking D4-D12
  • When you role a Stat you role for a high number.

MetaSkills

MetaSkills Show training in a certain area. They can be lifestyles, training, cultural aspects, social trends, group alliegances, or any other collective of talents, abilities and knowledges. A Metaskill has two parts: Rank and Specialty.

Rank is a number showing how much that Metaskill defines you. If you have one in a Metaskill then you're really not very into it. If you've got 5 in a Metaskill then that's something you've been doing for a long time, probably since birth. Again, there's a scale:

Level of Metaskill Rank (how much you're 'into it')
Something that you just started doing. 1
People know you for this. 2
You could train someone in your ways. 3
Others seek you to train them in your ways. 4
You're a superstar, baby! 5

Rank - Mechanic - Your Rank in a Metaskill determines how many dice you role. So if you've got CRD of D8, and a Metaskill of 3 then you role 3D8 to do CRD moves within that Metaskill.

  • Whenever you role multiple Dice any Ones you role add One to the highest role.

Example: You've got CRD D8, and Metaskill of 3. You role 3D8 and get 1, 3, 8. Your highest number is 8, but you also rolled a one, so you add them up for a total score of 9.

Specialties are a number assigned to a specific, single description, one-round-only action that you're good at.

Example: If you've got the Metaskill "Kung-Fu" a Specialty would be "snap-Kick" or "Meditation."

Specialty - Mechanic - Your specialties in a Metaskill are the minimum you can role for that action.

Example: You role CRD to punch a guy, and get a 2. But your Specialty in Kung-Fu for "Punching" is 3. You get a 3 for your role.
