MMPlays 4 – Stats or those things that make up characters

Listen Later

Welcome to MM Plays. Today we’re talking about stats or statistics in RPGs. That’s really it but to give a little bit more here’s a definition.

Statistics
  • A statistic or stat is a trait that is associated with a piece of data (often an integer, die size or dice pool), that represents an aspect of a character, and that interacts with the game mechanics.
  • A game’s core resolution mechanic is often directly connected to the primary statistics (i.e. basic stats not derived from other traits) of the player characters. Characters may also have secondary statistics (which are derived from other traits).
