Re: [RPG]: True20 Adventure Roleplaying, reviewed by C.W.Richeson (4/4)

Peter Knutsen has taken the time to write me and point out that I do not mention how ability scores are generated in True20. Great point, Peter!

In True20 the default method is to assign 6 points however the player may want. In addition, since abilities begin at +0 they may be decreased up to a -4 each though below a -2 isn't recommended. For example, were I to make a warrior I might assign the following: Str +2, Dex+1, Con +2, Int +0, Wis -1, Cha +2 for a total of six points. I actually have seven points worth of positive modifiers, but I balanced that out by decreasing Wisdom one point.

A side paragraph briefly discusses what characters are like if a Narrator gives fewer or greater points.

There is no support for random ability score generation.

I'm always happy to answer questions, correct mistakes, and otherwise try to be as accurate as possible with my reviews. If you have any comments please just let me know.
