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:

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.

=== Willpower ===
Willpower determines the [[MA]] of the player character and alters the cooldowns of many skills and mutations.
{{#cargo_query:table=Skills
|fields = Class=Skill Tree, COUNT(*)=Total Skills That Require WIL
|where=RequiredStats HOLDS LIKE '%Willpower' AND Cost <> 0
|group by = Class}}
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]].


=== Intelligence ===

=== Temporary Intelligence ===
For NPCs, Intelligence also determines their pathfinding behavior. Creatures with lower intelligence will often ignore terrain penalties when moving.
 
==== Temporary Intelligence ====
Intelligence can be temporarily granted through wearing certain equipment. This will not count towards the threshold for stat requirements, but will apply most passive effects. How temporary intelligence affects skill points gain is different than real intelligence. This boost only alters total skill points on level up: the creature will gain the amount of skill points as if they actually had that bonus intelligence. However, once it is removed and they level up again, they will be penalized that exact amount and will gain less points that level. This results in a zero net sum.

Ego is also used for recruiting other creatures by either using [[Proselytize]], [[Rebuke Robot]], or [[Beguiling]]. Unlike other attributes, Ego is the only one that can affect mutation levels. All [[:Category:Mental Mutations]] will be given (or penalized) levels depending on their ego modifier.
