BBS Rules
Ability Scores
Your ability scores reflect your character's strengths and
weaknesses with numbers. There are four scores: STRength,
VITality, INTelligence, and AGIlity. Each of
these scores represents a different physical and mental relation,
listed below:
STR - Muscle strength, pure and true. Relates to lifting
power, carrying capacity, overall ability to break stuff, etc. A high STR score improves damage with most weapons, and can be
helpful when swimming and applying yourself in highly physical
areas.
VIT - This defines how tough your character is. A high VIT
score improves your DEF (Defense) and can also reflect a resistance
to poison or other health-related aspects.
INT - Your character's strength of reasoning and mental
capacity. A high INT is good for characters who rely on their
brains to get themselves out of trouble, such as those who learn
their spells from books. INT is used both for magical attack and
defense.
AGI - Can reflect your character as having great speed or
being very nimble. AGI affects how quickly a character can react to
a number of things, and it also determines how accurate they are
when trying to hit a target.
This set of abilities comes from Breath of Fire, made by Capcom.
It is both versatile and simple, so I thought it might work well in
this application. More information soon.
