	+ = Character Creation = + A challenge is a problem VS the characters abilities and skills to solve it. + The problem will be listed as the ability needed to solve it and the number 0 to 200 needed to succeed. 100 means that you have a 50% chance of success. 0 means that you have 0% changes of failure and 200 means that you have 100% of failure. If more than one skill is needed then the 2 skill numbers are averaged. If one skill is more important than another, it can be listed 2 times or more and or with different numbers. + + Skills relate to the use of an object and the skill needed to use it. It is listed just like a Challenge but can be tied to an object. For example a Gun skill lists Gun as the object and dex and quick as stats needed for it. To get the Challenge level you must take the targets number averaged with the shooters number averaged with the skill number. You must roll higher or equal to this to succeed + + If you have a arm wrestling contest between 2 people with no skill then you would take the str of each and average it. So thus char A has a str of 0 and player be has a strength of 0, then you have a 50/50 chance of winning. The attribute number is based on a bell curve or a standard normal distribution. At plus one standard deviation you have a +34% chance of success. The games scale goes from -3 to +3 standard deviations with the numbers 0 to 200, thus a str of 200 has a 0.0013498980315 chance of failure! A strength of 100 has a 50% chance of failure with a weight that on average only 50% of tested humans can lift. All stats of 100 are average and that is based on the average human because we all know about what that is. Only super humans would have a strength of 200. + + There is are also 3 stats that are overview stats call body, mind and spirit. These are used in cases of aliens or animals. Horse can easily lift a weight that is much greater than what 50% of the humans max out at. A SF super computer AI has a mind that is WAY better than any human and some aliens might have powers of spirit that make humans look weak and spiritless. Each point increases the standard weight by 1%, negative or percentages over 100% are possible. Body for example will effect all body stats together, thus str, dex, end and quick. Mind effects only smart and give or takes away form the human norm of the ability to consciously change emotional settings like fight or flight. Spirit effects beautiful, charming and any magical or physic abilities of the skill set.
