Attributes affect how well a character performs certain skills or actions, such as attacking and dodging attacks.
Many [[Skills_and_Powers|skills]] also have attribute requirements. For example, a character must have at least 17 strength to learn the Jump skill.
Attributes can be increased (or decreased) by a variety of means, including [[Mutations]], [[Cybernetics]], [[Equipment]], and on level up:
*Every 6 levels, starting at level 6, every attribute increases by 1 (level 6, 12, 18, 24, ...)
*Every 6 levels, starting at level 3, you gain 1 attribute point, which can be used to increase a single attribute by 1 (level 3, 9, 15, 21, ...){{Code Reference | class = Leveler | method = LevelUp}}

By default, a character's [[carry capacity]] (the total weight in pounds they can carry in their inventory and equipment slots) is equal to 15 times their strength attribute. The strength modifier also affects the penetration of melee weapons. The modifier is added onto the base 4 [[PV]] of most weapons, but has a max limit specified depending on what weapon it is.


{{Missing info|Figure out exactly by how much carry capacity increases.}}
It is also used in [[save]]s that require resisting forced movement. An example would be getting [[stuck]] in {{favilink|asphalt}} or a web.
Each point of strength increases the carry capacity of a creature. The strength modifier also affects the penetration of melee weapons. The modifier is added onto the base 4 pv of most weapons, but has a max limit specified depending on what weapon it is.

{{missing info|Find how willpower exactly affects cooldown speed.}}
Each point of a character's willpower attribute higher than 16 reduces their ability cooldowns by 5% of the ability's base cooldown, up to a maximum reduction of 80% (at 32 willpower) or a minimum cooldown of 5 rounds. Each point of willpower below 16 increases the cooldowns by 5% of their base cooldown.
 
A character's [[MA]] is modified by an amount equal to their willpower modifier. Additionally, the willpower modifier is a factor in how fast a character regenerates lost [[HP]].
