Above are the different types of attributes. They are pretty self explanatory, however, we'll take a moment to give a brief summary of each below.
As a reminder, all attributes range from 1-5 (base) and each dot expands how powerful that attribute is. At the 4th dot you may pick a specialty (listed below as well - they are not limited to what is listed; ask an ST before selecting a specialty).
* Next to no skill
** Average (for a mortal)
*** Above average
