A short description of the ten major stats
(Last Modified: Fri Sep 17, 2004)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
AlteredReality uses a system of ten character statistics.  All stats affect
all characters to some degree, but it's important to know what they do to
determine which will be most useful for you.  The first three, strength,
coordination and agility, primarily affect physical fighting and defense
abilities, which make them most useful for warriors, rangers, and thieves.
The next three stats, intelligence, concentration and perception, mostly deal
with spellcasting abilities, which makes them most useful for mages, clerics,
and psionicists.  The next two stats, physical resilience and magical
resilience, affect your defense against physical and magical attacks, and
durability measures how much damage you can take before dying.  The last
stat, charisma, is the odd one out, affecting a few miscellaneous things, but
it's very important for bards.

For more information on any stat, please see the individual help files.
