Stats & XP Point Explained
XP is granted to every character in Mythikos. Every centaur, familiar, demi-god, and god will have an ability to earn XP! XP will be tracked by individual players as they are earned and can be put into specific stats. To up a stat, you must purchase XP either by using RP points, or by winning in giveaways, prompts, and other shop sanctioned activities!
Where RP Points are sort of like shop currency and can get you special things in shop (including XP), XP is a secondary currency where you can house character stats.
The higher the stats, the more things open up!
The difference between XP points and RP points is, where RP points usually require a full-fledge RP, you can up a characters XP more simply. Sometimes it requires simply participating in a game or event; sometimes it requires filling out a single prompt; sometimes it requires simply quoting a staff member during a giveaway. They don't always require RP but they can!
Yes, you can write up an RP for XP points, and provided it qualifies / meets the criteria for RP Point submission, can also submit it for RP points as well.
XP
A characters XP is basically broken down into stats. Every character will start with Basic Stats
Strength
Speed
Stamina
Agility
Intelligence
Constitution
Spirit
Willpower
Magic
Luck
Weaponry
Armory
Charisma
Piety
Creativity
Certain breeds or character types might gain extra skills. Individuals with wings will gain a special skill.
Flight
Other Breeds may be released with additional skills! We will add them as they're released!
Demi-Gods and Gods will receive additional slots based on their actual powers.
Demi-Gods will receive an additional skill:
Minor Power
Flight (if demi-god has wings)
Gods will receive five additional skills
Blessing
Curse
Major Power
Minor Power
Flight (no wings necessary)
Demi-Gods will always be stronger than mortals.
Gods will always be stronger than Demi-Gods and Mortals.
Think of them as tiers. A level 0 skill from a Demi-God will always overpower/win against even the strongest of mortals.
A level 0 God will always overpower/win against even the strongest of Demi-Gods and mortals.
-----
Important Note: Please know that these stats are meant to be used to encourage your stories, not inhibit them. They are meant to be fun flavors to give each Mythikos character. While they will grant you certain perks that cannot be obtained in other ways, and the shop might use them during games or events, ultimately, the stats don't have to dictate everything about your character.
If your character has wings and has a 0 flight stats, you do NOT have to RP them as if they cannot fly! They absolutely can fly, just as someone with 0 in Intelligence is still capable of critical thinking, and another character with a 0 in Speed can still win at races!
It's however you want to have fun with the stats and how you choose to use them ICly!
What stats can do for you is allow you to track and strength their stats. If you focus on flight, they could someday wake up to grow another pair of wings, or gain advantages during IC Events and races! Different tiers of skills will unlock different things!
We will have a master list of what you can unlock by strengthening your stats and gaining XP points. Just because you unlock a tier doesn't mean the character *must* gain the perk -- but it means it does become available should you wish it!

Stats
Here is an explanation of what each stat is!
Strength
This stat has to do with your physical strength! How strong is your character? The higher the stat, the stronger they are!
Speed
How fast can your character sprint or run? The higher the fast, the faster they are! It also can help in terms of who starts off a battle or a race!
Stamina
How long can your character last? The higher the stamina, the farther they can go without tiring or wearing down! Think of this as their endurance.
Agility
The higher your agility, the more flexible your character happens to be--and how quick they are on their feet! This stat covers a character dexterity. The higher a characters agility, the better they can dodge, but also the faster they can attack!
Intellect
The higher the intellect, the smarter and clever your character! This stat is often used in tandem with almost all the other skills, but magical sorts in particular tend to have higher intellect.
Constitution
How healthy is your character? The higher their constitution, the healthier their physical vitality. Where a sickness or poison might bring down someone of lesser constitution, the more points in this, the more they can withstand!
Spirit
Mythikos is a magical world. The higher your spirit, the more capable your character is resisting magical attacks, spells, or enchantments. Think of it as magic defense!
Willpower
The higher your Willpower, the more capable your character is resisting physical attacks, emotional trauma, and mental duress. Think of it as physical resistance to pain, trauma, and emotional distress.
Magic
The higher your magic skill, the more potent and powerful your spells. This skill is great for any character who has magic, or is interested in the magic of the world. For individuals who don't have magic abilities, upping this skill could unlock magical skills, or allow them to earn/use magical items and enchantments.
Luck
The higher this skill, the luckier your character! Perhaps it means you get to re-roll in a game, or your character somehow makes it through some sort of challenge that would kill or harm anyone else who tried it. It's always good to have some luck!
Weaponry
The higher this skill, the better proficiency the character has when wielding weapons.
Armory
The higher this skill, the better proficiency the character has utilizing shields, armor, and defense!
Charisma
The higher this skill, the more charm your character has! Perhaps they need to talk themselves out of a jam, or convince a monster not to attack. The higher the charisma, the more persuasive and charming your character tends to be!
Piety
The higher this skill, the more spiritual your character likely will be. Gods, demi-gods, and spirits live freely among mortals so the more pious they are, the more a favored god or spirit might listen to them.
Creativity
The higher this skill, the more creative your character happens to be! From thinking outside the box, to simply having skills design and craft, many character in Mythikos could use creative minds!
Limited Stats
These stats require a certain stage or trait to inherit!
Flight
The higher this stat, the more experienced your character is while flying! Perhaps they can pull off more exceptional moves, or they simply know how to handle/fight against strong winds and inclement weather.
This stat is granted to those who have wings (Common through Demi-God) or Gods (Gods can fly with or without wings)
Minor Power
The higher this stat, the more powerful a God or Demi-God's minor power will be! Minor Power's are specific to the Demi-God or God so will vary!
Blessing
This stat is curated specifically for a unique blessing. The higher this stat, the longer lasting the blessing, and the stronger against another's curses! A Blessing can undo a Curse! Blessings are specific to the God so will vary!
Curse
This stat is curated specifically for a unique curse. the higher this stat, the longer lasting the curse, and the stronger it is against another's blessing! A Curse can undo a Blessing! Curses are specific to the God so will vary!
Major Power
The higher this stat, the more powerful a God's major power will be! Major Power's are specific to God's so will vary!

What Do Stats Get Me?
By upping a characters stats, you can earn character-specific boons! Some of these might be a title, giving a character permanent attributes provided they are "equipped" during a game or breeding raffle!
Other stats or stat combinations can grant your character customized items, re-designs, new attributes, companions, magic, and even customized art! There are a few different paths to achieving the above -- some are pre-written combinations, while others are more general and can be customized to your character! You are allowed to mix and match both Pre-Written Paths and Customized Paths to obtain XP for your character!
Remember, XP points affect the specific character who earned them through RP or activity and can't be used on other characters!
See our list of Stat Rewards in the following posts!

Customized Paths
These paths allow you to focus on stats that make sense for your character to unlock, but have pre-set minimums. For example, if you needed 50 XP in at least three stats, you could choose which stat to focus on -- so for one character maybe it was Strength, Speed, and Constitution but for another character you would focus on Magic, Spirit, and Agility.
So long as your characters clear the minimums, you can unlock the boon!
