Your base stats are Strength, Dexterity, Constitution, Intelligence, Wisdom, Charisma, Magic, and Resistance.
• Strength is a measurement of physical power, physical defense, quality of your bones & muscles, speed, and endurance. A high strength eventually allows for you to over clock your physical and magical abilities at the cost of increased strain on your body. When paired with constitution or magic, you will be able to damage foes that are normally immune to raw physical strikes such as ghosts, slimes, and gods.
• Dexterity is a measurement of your agility, reflexes, flexibility, reaction time, and balance. High-level dexterity allows your body to perform simultaneous independent actions at once. This means that you can deflect a sword with your index finger and immediately shoot lightning from your pinkie even if your mind is suffering from intoxication.
• Constitution is a measurement of your health and stamina. This is also the stat that determines how much life force you have, how easily you can manipulate it, and how fast it recovers. Constitution also increases the rate at which you recover from injury and a high constitution can even allow you to recover from fatal injuries or regenerate from nothing. A high constitution stat will also halt your aging and revert you back to your bodily prime. Finally, your constitution increases the power and efficiency of bloodline traits.
• Intelligence determines how easily you can learn, conceptualize, analyze, visualize, solve problems, and reason. Increasing intelligence also increases your thought speed, increases mental processing, allows for multiple parallel thought processing, and reduces the cool down of abilities. High intelligence can also allow you to analyze and predict the future based on available data. Finally, a high intelligence will eventually grant you psychic powers and eventually reality warping.
• Wisdom determines willpower, pain tolerance, common sense, empathy, awareness, enlightenment, and intuition. With wisdom, there is a metaphysical sphere around you that can detect & identify anything within or enters your sphere. The higher your wisdom, the greater the range and more clarity on what that something is (such as killing intent or a flying arrow). Finally, wisdom determines the strength and manipulation of your soul (and adjacent traits/powers).
• Charisma is a reflection of your personality, controlling the flow of a conversation, personal magnetism, leadership ability, and appearance. High-level charisma is not mind-control unless outside factors, such as intoxicants and magic, are involved. You normally cannot convince someone to do out-of-character actions unless they already had traits, experiences, or thoughts that would lead them to commit it. For example, you cannot convince someone to sleep with you unless they already had some form of affection for you. As your charisma increases, you will be able to apply it against entities that are normally immune to charisma or have alien mindsets.
• Magic is the stat that determines how much mana your body has, how easily you can manipulate mana, and how powerful your supernatural abilities are. In addition, a higher magic stat will result in higher magical resistance and an increased rate of mana generation. (Mana is a catch-all term for every supernatural energy source that isn't life force).
• Resistance is a measure of your ability to combat every abnormal or negative condition such as poison, toxin, infections, diseases, panic, fear, insanity, hypnosis, illusions, psychic attacks, corruption, soul attacks, conceptual attacks, forced transformation, memetic effects, emotional manipulation, fate/destiny manipulation, parasites, addiction, and loss of senses, amnesia, possession, temperature, pressure, and radiation. Anything that is weaker than your resistance is automatically nullified and destroyed.
