public class Attribute

extends java.lang.Object

Implements the nine attributes every living being has. These attributes represent the basic inborn abilities of all beings.

Attributes in JADE are rated on a scale of 0+ with 10 being the average score for an average human. In contrast to ADOM the ratings have been simplified a bit more (inspired by the rules from ADOM RG and more recently D&D 3rd Edition): for every full points above 10, a bonus of +1 is used for other activities (e.g. +1 to damage for every 2 points of strength above 10). For every 2 poins below 10, a modifier of -1 is used for appropriate actions.

Attributes (again in contrast to ADOM) are basically unlimited.
