Setting Attributes
Each character starts the game with a total of 36 points to divide among the six attributes. No attribute may be below 2 or above 10, as these represent the functional minimum and maximum of normal people. Certain game elements (such as equipment or injury) may shift attributes below 2 or above 10, but this shouldn't normally occur during this step of character creation.
Higher attribute scores represent a character's strengths, while lower ones represent their weaknesses.
