Movement speed (MS) is an attribute that controls the action cost of moving.

Movement speed can't be adjusted during character generation, and is not affected by other attributes, such as agility.

The player and most other characters begin with a default movement speed of 100.

Overview

Characters generate a certain number of action points each turn equal to ten times their quickness (QN) value, or QN x 10. Each time a character moves, the character expends some or all of those action points, depending on their movement speed.

The maximum effective movement speed (MS) value for any character is 195. Increasing your movement speed beyond that value has no effect. 195 is the highest value that the game will use for movement calculations.

Moving consumes a number of action points equal to ten times the difference between your movement speed and 200, or (200 - MS) x 10.

If your movement speed and your quickness are both equal to 100, this means that you can move exactly once per turn.
