Ability scores represent your character’s raw potential and greatly influence other game systems.
This deepens the tactical depth of the game, providing players with tools to overcome challenges, engage in combat, and interact with the game world in unique ways. The system encourages experimentation and strategic thinking, rewarding players for clever ability combinations and usage.
Ability Scores are established during the Ability Point Distribution phase of character creation.
Ability Scores can be modified either through Class Progression, Equipment, Expertise, Spell Effects, and Status Conditions.
During a Skill Check, Attack Roll, or Saving Throw, an Ability Score Modifier is added to that roll. The amount is derived from the Ability Score and is called the Ability Score Modifier.
