Humans establish the scale for these ratings, with a "typical" human having a score of 10 in each ability (and with a score of 0 corresponding to no ability). In most cases, the ability score is "primary" in that it is what gets modified through various means, but it is the derived ability modifier that actually affects what happens in the game.

  • An ability score is the numeric rating of one of the six abilities. Humans establish the scale for these ratings, with a "typical" human having a score of 10 in each ability (and with a score of 0 corresponding to no ability). In most cases, the ability score is "primary" in that it is what gets modified through various means, but it is the derived ability modifier that actually affects what happens in the game. The game engine allows an ability score to range from 3 to 255. However, player characters are incapable of reaching this maximum through normal means, as starting ability scores are limited to 20, and the ability cap limits magical enhancements to +12. The highest ability score achievable by a player character through normal means is 57 (strength). The highest score achievable without bonuses from feats and race is 40.
