Character Stats

 

Character stats are based roughly on those found in the game Dungeon and Dragons. Below are all the stats and what they mean for your character.

 

Strength (STR) : How much your character can lift or how hard they can hit.

Dexterity (DEX): How fast yoru character can move, as well as how accurately and precisely they can manipulate tools.

Constitution (CON): Your character's duribility in terms of their physical resiliance. 

Wisdom (WIS): How well your character percieves what is going on in the world around them.

Intelligence (INT): Your character's booksmarts or academic knowledge.

Charisma (CHA): How charming or personable your character is, how good they are in social situations. 

 

Starting Stats

 

All characters recieve their starting stats based on two factors: The Standard Array and Species Bonuses.

 

The Standard Array gives starting players a starting set of numbers to assign to their character's stats as they see fit. 

The numbers the Standard Array provides is: 15, 14, 13, 12, 10, and 8.

Each species also provides a Species Bonus to starting stats.These are added on to your character's stats AFTER the Standard Array is applied. You must include these bonuses in your submission form yourself!

Earth Pony Bonus: +2 STR

Pegasus Pony Bonus: +2 DEX

Unicorn Pony Bonus: +2 INT

Bat Pony Bonus: +1 DEX, +1 WIS

Changeling Bonus: +1 Dex, +1 CHA

Bovine Bonus: +1 STR, +2 CON

Using Stats

 

Stats matter in Tales from Equestria! When taking part in certain events, making certain submissions, or answering certain prompts, an admin may need to roll a stat check. This will determine the outcome of that situation. The roll needed to pass will depend on how "difficult" the task is or what the stats of an opponent may be.

 

For example, if your task is moving a boulder, an admin may roll a stat check on your characer's STR. If the boulder only requires a 5 to pass, and your character has a STR of 15, the admin will roll a random number between 1-15. As long as the number is 5 or greater, the boulder is moved.

 

Please note that this is different than the typical D&D use of stats. This has been changed to streamline the process and make things more clear-cut on how stats impact performance.
