Monster Guide

Trait Points

To build a monster use the following chart and the monster template to construct a Rank appropriate creature by spending Trait Points on various monster characteristics. Different templates will have bonuses and different numbers of Trait Points to spend at each rank. Trait Points may be spent across available traits with no trait exceeding the maximum for that trait. Core Traits must have at least 1 point minimum, and may not exceed the maximum defined by the template.

Attribute	1 Trait Point	Trait Limits
Health	+1 Health	Core Trait Maximum
Vigor	+2 Vigor	Rank Maximum
Physical Defense	+1 Dodge OR +1 Armor.	Rank x 2 Maximum
Magical Defense	+1 Magical Defense	Rank Maximum

Outsider Template

Outsiders are assigned stats using the Outsider Hierarchy chart as a basis. Outsiders additionally gain a power slot for each Rank. A higher Rank slot can take a lower rank power, sometimes with increased effect. An Outsider may also take a power slot as Improved Stats which grants 2 x that Rank in bonus points and increases the Core Trait Maximum by that Rank. Outsiders have a base Magic Resistance of 7.
