Welcome to Gaia! ::

Heres how it works, follow these steps to roll your Dragons starting stats.

The stats aren't terribly complex but a great thing to add to RP with your Dragon and breeding your Dragon and in certain job classes. Stats are required to Race, Battle or run Gauntlets with your Dragon or participate in Arena events held by staff.

The stats are as follows:
HP: (Hit points, effects how much damage you can endure before unconscious in battles and gauntlets)
STR: (Strength, effect damage of physical attacks in battles and how much haul you get from certain job classes)
DEF: (Defense, effects how much of raw damage you take from either physical or magical attacks in battles)
STM: (Stamina, effects outcomes of racing either in flight or on foot and yield of certain job classes)
INT: ( Intelligence, effects perception of traps in the gauntlets and outcome of certain job classes)
MAG: (Magic, effects how much damage Magical or Ability attacks do and how well you sense Magic, as well as effect the outcome of certain job classes)
MANA: (well, mana, effects how many times you can use special attacks or magic in battles or gauntlets)
FT: (Fertility, Effects how many babies end up with that specific Dragon's traits more dominantly over the other parent)

Here is how to roll for stats:
1. Copy and paste the stat rolling form.
2. Decide from the Abilities list, what abilities your Dragon will have, This can only be changed later by using certain items from the Magic Shop or completing specific schools/training. (more on that in the Schools/training threads)
3. Fill out the rest of the form with the Dragon's information (Note: Dragon must be certed and must be at least a teen stage to roll for stats)
4. With your post, Roll 8 d6 (The stats lock at a minimum of 3, so 3 and up are kept for stats, anything under 3 is automatically a 3)
5. Select which number goes to what stat, thats right! You get to choose What stat gets what number from the resulting d6 rolls. (Please roll all 8 d6 with the one post, not 8 posts with 1 d6 roll with each)
6. Edit your post in this thread with the numbers for each stat in the place you have chosen.
7. Copy your stat sheet and take it to your journal and post it in the same post as the perspective dragon it belongs to. Tadaaaaa!! Your Dragon now has Stats and abilities.

Here is what the abilities are and how to use them (Note this is still under development pending the completion of the battle/race/gauntlet dice systems and may change later on.)
