Chapter 11

How do you spread out those points?

CON 5, INT 5, CHA 1.

You ride ever closer to Garag Dorn, the land falling away behind you down towards the river valley where rests the town of your birth that you have so recently left behind. You turn and crane your body around Gorcabad's imposing muscular bulk hoping for one last look but you have passed into a heavily forested area and all that greets your eyes is a swath of woodland. Turning back to the task at hand you consider your options.

You know orcs respect physical prowess, and while you cannot make yourself a mighty thewed champion you can in one area at least make yourself equal to the average human: so you allocate 5 points to CON.

The next thing you think of is that 100 is the maximum human level without magical enhancement and it tickles your fancy to be among the best in the world at something, so you put 5 points into Intelligence.

Now you are down to that niggling last point. You almost leave it, let it sit there until you have five of them to put into Wisdom, but then you pause... ~Cha feeds into a lot of these derived scores, including Social Skill, and sometimes, when the designers are feeling like going the extra mile, fractions of a point actually matter on Social checks...~ You think to yourself. Yet, at the same time, Wisdom feeds into Social Skill too, and it also is a factor in Lore and Perception. Ah but, and this is what decides you, Charisma plays a role in Hit Points and Mana Points, both of which you my very well NEED, and soon!

Decision made you finalize your stats, coming out looking like this:
