Each character has a set of traits, called Attributes, which describe the character's raw abilities. Each Attribute is grouped into one of three categories: Physical, Mental, or Spiritual.
All attributes have a standard format. They range from 1 up, with 10 being human average, and 20 being the normal human maximum. Each attribute applies a modifier to related regular rolls, such as Skill Checks, and a modifier that may be applied to percentile rolls. Both of these modifiers can be seen on the chart below.
