Stats are the objective measure of your character’s skill in a certain area, and should be viewed as a guideline to what they can accomplish IC. In addition to day-to-day flavor, skills play an important role in combat, creation, discovery, and other occurrences that require the roll of an OOC dice. As you progress through each class tier, you will be able to increase your abilities as you see fit. A character can never exceed 30 in any one stat.

Core Stats

Dexterity (DEX)

Measurement of stealth and speed. A character high in dexterity will be better at spying, sneaking, and fleeing, as well as more aware of their surroundings. Dex is the core stat for Informants.

Prowess (PRO)

Measurement of physical ability. A character high in prowess will be better at combat skills, brute physical strength, and weapon use. Prowess is the core stat for Militants.

Attunement (ATN)

Measurement of connection to magic. A character high in Attunement will be better at channeling and controlling magic. Attunement is the core stat for mages.

Health (HLT)

Measurement of personal health and healing ability. A character high in health will be able to withstand more punishment, and restore more HP when healing others. Health is the core stat for medic-track survivors.

Fortune (FOR)

Measurement of fortune, both inherently and the ability to create it. A character with high fortune will be able to craft higher value items, and will be more likely to encounter favorable random events in the world. Fortune is the core stat for scavenger-track survivors.

Stat Increases

Training

You can train a specific stat by having a thread centered around it, where at least 4 of your posts must be focused on training the chosen stat. The character/s you thread with do not necessarily have to train the same stat. A character can redeem 5 stat increases per season through training.

As your stat level goes up, so does the cost to train them! It takes 1 finished thread per stat level 6-10, 2 for 11-15, 3 for 16-20, 4 for 21-25, and 5 for 26-30. For example, increasing your stat from 7 to 8 costs 1 thread, from 14 to 15 costs 2 threads, and from 25 to 26 costs 5 threads. Once you've used a thread to redeem a stat you cannot use it again.

Training Suggestions

  • Dexterity: Remaining undetected, endurance/stamina, nimble/climbing activities, learning to map out surroundings
  • Prowess: Endurance/stamina, fight training (ranging from absolute basics to finetuning techniques), relevant strength exercises, weapons training
  • Attunement: Meditation, channeling practice, mindfulness, practicing with foci, personal activities which deepen your connection to magic
  • Health: Practicing/studying medicine and health care, general body conditioning (strength and stamina), competitive salad eating
  • Fortune: Experimenting with scouting and scavenging techniques, successful gambling, studying business strategies

Current Events
