== Character CP ==
== Extra CP ==
 
  
;Total CP: A character's total CP value is the sum of the character's template CP and extra CP. Total CP must not be greater than your Character Point allowance. (See [[Mano a Mano:Template CP|Game Design/Templates/Template CP]].)
+
Add the CP of the character's '''Template''' to the character's total CP.
  
;Extra CP: Extra CP is the sum of the character's extra ability, qualities, toughness, power, agility and speed CP.
+
The character's '''build'' allows the character's power, health and agility to be different from the normal template values. Some templates do not allow all these builds. Mechanical characters may be built to exact specifications, while some animals vary in size more than others.
  
;Maimed Characters: A character who has lost (or never had) the use of a limb may have the lame quality, missing natural weapons or reduced natural weapon quantity. Typically, players need the GM's permission to create characters with missing or disabled limbs. If the character's natural weapons are different from their template, recalculate their template CP. (See [[Mano a Mano:Game Design#Players and Characters|Game Design/Players and Characters]], [[Mano a Mano:Disabilities|Game Design/Abilities/Disabilities]] and [[Mano a Mano:Template CP|Game Design/Templates/Template CP]].)

;Extra Ability CP: Ability CP is ability level times ten. An extra ability modifier of 1 (student) is worth 10 CP, 2 (expert) is worth 20 CP, 3 (master) is worth 30 CP and 4 (legend) is worth 40 CP.
+
Add the CP of the character's '''ability levels'''. (Ability levels are the difference between a character's ability modifiers and their template's ability modifiers.) An ability level has the same CP value as an ability modifier, but they are seperate. The template's ability modifier is already included in the template CP.  A character's Ability CP is based on the character's ability levels, and not on the character's ability modifiers.  For example, if a Character has a +6 modifier in Stealth ability and his Template has +4 Stealth, then he has 2 levels of Stealth, which is worth 3 CP.  If a character has a -3 Nearsighted modifier and their template does not have this disability, then he has 3 levels of Nearsighted, which is worth -6 CP.
  
;Extra Quality CP: If a character has extra qualities beyond what his template defaults to, use the CP normally used for template qualities.
+
            Disability      General Ability or Skill

;Extra Toughness CP: Each point of extra toughness is worth 3 CP.  Extra toughness can be positive or negative.  For example -3 extra toughness is worth -9 CP.
+
If the character is missing any of the '''limbs''' described in their Template, subtract the CP of the missing limbs.
  
;Extra Power CP: Each point of extra power is worth 5 CP. Extra power can be positive or negative.  For example -2 extra power is worth -10 CP.
+
* 3 CP for a Primary Limb
 +
* 2 CP for a Secondary Limb
 +
* 1 CP for an Other Limb
  
;Extra Agility CP: The CP value of 1 extra agility is 20 CP. The CP value of -1 extra agility is -20 CP.
+
For example, if a Sword fighter looses his primary limb in a fight, his loss subtracts 3 CP from his Total CP.  If he still has enough of a stub left to attack with, then his maimed primary limb may still be counted as an "Other Limb", and would only be a loss of 2 CP.
 
 
;Extra Speed CP: If speed is 1/4, 1/2, or 1, doubling speed is worth 20 CP.  If speed is 1/2 or 1, halving speed is worth -20 CP.  If speed is more than 1, one additional speed is worth 20 CP.
