Character Attributes

A player character is defined by their attributes, most of which have direct parallels to the DnD fifth addition system.

Health and Wounds
A characters physical health is defined by two statistics, their stamina and their number of wounds.

Stamina
Stamina is a representation of a characters ability to keep on defending themselves in combat, by properly parrying and utilizing armor to negate damage. Almost every attack will damage stamina, only wounding an opponent if their stamina is at zero.

Stamina is determined by a characters hit dice, which can be increased in size and number through the use of several consumable items and Esoteric Tomes. Stamina can be restored by taking a rest, or through the use of consumables such as health potions.

Wounds
Wounds represent a characters vitality; once their number of wounds reaches zero, they die.

A character only takes wound damage if their stamina is at zero or if an attack deals more damage than they have remaining stamina.
