Spoiler: Note about Stats (click to show/hide)

((If you were wondering about What the stats are actually for, it's just actions that would involve them. So Strength would be lifting things, moving things, and certain attack rolls. Agility would be for Escaping enemies, dodging physical attacks, using ranges physical weaponry, and general acrobatics. So Jumping, swinging, being assassin-y. Intelligence is used for operating electronics/machinery, figuring out weapons not normally in the character's knowledge, and dodging science/magic attacks. Moxie is your charisma/coolness factor. This is used for interactions with NPCs if there are any, and generally being the suavest person in the room. Finally, Toughness doesn't have to do with rolls, but can reduce the damage you take. So if you have an 8 in it, a blade is going to get caught in your arm instead of passing right through. And a 1 or 2 is going to let i carve through you like fucking butter.

Hm. If it's the same character, I'd say no, the stats are there to stay.

And yes, I will be using the '6+ is an overshoot' method of interpreting the dice. Unless you guys would prefer otherwise. I'llp ut up a quick poll.))

Heh, use the sigging thread. someone should have it linked in their Signature...
Like me!
I have three separate posts there, in face.

I'll post a sheet as a shapeshifting gold dragon, because I have one of those shifting avatars and most of them are gold dragons. Or the letter D, in gold.

I'm just going to assume that if it falls under the term 'magic' at any point I can basically just do whatever.
