Revision as of 01:18, 6 April 2010

Attributes

The ten Attributes replace most of the standard tests in the game. Rather than roll pairs, you just roll the one. Characters do not, by default, have to have a score of 1 in any Attribute - zeros are possible, where a character may pretty much only roll her specialty in dice for certain specific tasks. In fact most Minor Characters may suffer this fate for some stories.

Attributes have maximum ratings as follows:

The progression to Favored, Prodigal, and Legendary is shown via Merits. Celestial only occurs in certain rare instances outside of the Celestial Exalted.
