Skills are added on to your TACKS attributes in certain, narrow situations. For example, when making an Athleticism check to swim, each rank in Swim you have gives you a +1 bonus to the roll.

Liberi get an ability for free from their primary ability tree, then get 15 XP to spend on additional abilities. Any ability she meets the prerequisites of may be purchased. Non-Liberi may spend any XP left over from step 4 on abilities from trees they have access to.

			A Mundane Ability Tree costs 10 XP to purchase, and grants you an ability for free when you take it. In addition, it grants you access to a wide variety of abilities to spend XP on in step 5. Liberi Ability Trees can not be purchased after character creation except in specific circumstances.

	~~Determine what~~ your ~~starting Vitality~~, ~~max Life~~, ~~Attack, and Defense scores are~~.		Once you have allocated your TACKS attributes, you need to use them to calculate a few other stats, referred to as Secondary Attributes.

	~~Vitality~~: ~~The power that is holding you together and keeping you immortal~~. This stat is mutable, and changes over time depending on how much you ~~take from others,~~ how ~~much~~ you ~~use your abilities, and natural decay over time~~. ~~Vitality~~ is ~~5 + Spirit + Toughness. Your max Vitality is twice~~ this ~~base number~~. ~~Vitality~~ drops ~~at the rate of one point per day~~. ~~You can only gain Vitality by stealing or praying for lost souls. Below 0 Vitality~~, you die.		Life: Your body's physical status. This stat is mutable, and changes over time depending on how much damage you have and how wounded you are. This is the maximum your life can be - damage reduces it below this maximum. If your Life score drops below 0, you fall unconscious. If it reaches a negative number higher than your maximum Life, you die.

	Life~~: Your body's physical status. This stat~~ is ~~mutable, and changes over time depending on how much damage you have and how wounded you are. Life is 5~~ + Toughness + Athleticism~~. This is the maximum your life can be - damage reduces it below this maximum. Below 0 life, you fall unconscious. Below negative Toughness Life, you die~~.		Life is 10 + Toughness + Athleticism.

	~~Attack~~: ~~How well you can hit things with your attack abilities~~. ~~The same number~~ is ~~used for ranged~~ and ~~melee attacks~~. ~~Attack~~ is ~~Spirit + Athleticism~~ - ~~Size~~.		Vitality: The inherent life energy, found in everything. This stat is mutable, but rarely changes in a normal person, and has no maximum limit. In a Liberi, however, Vitality is everything - it is used to power magical abilities and feed their foci. If your Vitality falls below 0, you die.

	~~Defense: How hard it~~ is ~~for others to hit you. Defense is 7~~ + ~~Knowledge~~ + ~~Athleticism - Size.~~		Vitality is 5 + Toughness + Spirit

	~~Wound Threshold~~: How ~~much damage it takes to cause~~ you ~~serious trouble~~. WT is 1 + ~~Toughness + [Size x 2]. If a single attack deals more Life loss than this number, you have a chance at taking a Crippling Wound~~.		Attack: How accurate you are in combat. The same number is used for both ranged and melee attacks.
			Attack is Athleticism + Spirit.

	~~Melee Damage Modifier~~: ~~This bonus~~ is ~~added~~ to ~~all of your melee attacks~~. ~~You do not get this damage with abilities unless noted otherwise. MDM~~ is ~~[Toughness/2], rounded down~~.		Defense: How hard it is to hit you in combat. Defense is 7 + Knowledge + Athleticism.

	~~Ranged Damage Modifier~~: ~~This bonus~~ is added to ~~all of your ranged~~ attacks. ~~You do not get this bonus~~ to ~~damage~~ with ~~abilities unless noted otherwise~~. ~~MDM~~ is [Athleticism/2], rounded down.		Might: How much damage is added to attacks with Mighty weapons. Might is [Toughness/2], rounded down.

			Precision: How much damage is added to attacks with Precise weapons. Precision is [Athleticism/2], rounded down.

	All TACKS scores start at 2. You have 8 points to spend to improve these 5 stats. Your TACKS have a maximum starting value of 6.		Next, you allocate your TACKS attributes.

Step 1: Character concept

	==Step 1: Character concept==		==Step 1: Character concept==
	~~Decide on your class~~, what you want your character and your Foci to act/look like, your name, your gender, and any interesting ideas you want to incorporate into the character, such as your character's motivation, what they were before ~~they became a Liberi~~, how they feel about the world, etc. The rest of character creation will be in effectively getting this concept to work.
			Current character options are Liberi and skilled adult.

			Liberi is short for Liberi Gothica - the Tainted Children. Liberi Gothica are children who have come into contact with a demonic doll, known as a Foci, and formed a spiritual contract with it. Liberi gain a number of benefits from this contract, and a number of vices as well. You choose one Liberi ability tree as a Primary tree, which grants you a free ability, and two more as Secondary trees, which do not grant you a free ability.

			As a skilled adult, you start with more experience and skill, but no magical protection. You gain one Mundane Ability Tree for free.

			Once you've decided between the two, decide what you want your character (and your Foci, if you have one) to act/look like, your name, your gender, and any interesting ideas you want to incorporate into the character, such as your character's motivation, what they were before the game starts, how they feel about the world, etc. The rest of character creation will be in effectively getting this concept to work.
