to where you will spend your attribute points!
Strength - Defines how strong your character is. It affects how hard
your character can hit, how much weight he can lift, etc.
Constitution - Defines the toughness, endurance and stamina of your
character. In other words, how easy is your character to get injured, how
much time it takes before he gets tired, etc.
Dexterity - Defines how quick and swift your character is. It also
affects whatever has to do with your character using something, from a
weapon to a piano (simple examples).
Intelligence - Defines how smart you character is. An intelligent
character will be harder to catch and will be able to learn faster. It also
affects events where your character will need to make a choice.
Charisma - Is the measure of the character's social skill. The
ability to please a crowd and make new friends all depends on charisma.
Having a high charisma makes you better at interacting with new situations
and provides a bonus to the experience points you can earn. People with
poor social skills earn XP at a slower rate. It also affects how convincing
your character is. You will need it to bluff the police or the.. judges.
*Charisma at 20 gives 15% experience bonus (Less for less points)
Composure - Can your character maintain his nerve? Or will he lose
his cool under a difficult situation? Crime is not like selling candy, it's
demanding in terms of self-confidence.
One of the most important affections of primary attributes is that each
affect one or more specialties! This means that in order to be super-
efficient with your specialty it is not enough to train up to 100% both
skills. You also got to have high value in the primary attribute of this
specialty.
In future we may make Specialties be affected by two attributes (Most
likely, we need to test it though)
