== 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]].)
+
;Template CP: The CP of the character's template is given in the template.
  
;Extra CP: Extra CP is the sum of the character's extra ability, qualities, toughness, power, agility and speed CP.
+
;Ability CP: A character's ability level has the same CP value as a templates ability modifier.  The template's ability modifiers are already included in the template CP, so 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.
  
;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]].)

            Disability              Ability
 +
 +
Level      4  3  2  1    1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8
 +
CP       -10 -6 -3 -1    1  3  6  10  15  21  28  36
  
;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.
+
;Other CP: A character's other CP includes missing limbs CP and build CP.
  
;Extra Quality CP: If a character has extra qualities beyond what his template defaults to, use the CP normally used for template qualities.
+
;Missing Limbs CP: If the character is missing any limbs described in their Template, subtract the difference between the value of the character's natural weapons and their template's natural weapons. For example, suppose a human template has a dominant hand with 0 manual dexterity and an off hand with -1 manual dexterity. The human template's dexterity CP is -1.  If a human sword fighter looses his right hand in a fight then he only has one hand with -1 manual dexterity (-7 CP), so subtract the difference (6 CP) from his other CP and total CP.
  
;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.
+
;Build CP: The CP of a character's '''build''' comes from the following table:
  
;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.
+

;Extra Agility CP: The CP value of 1 extra agility is 20 CP. The CP value of -1 extra agility is -20 CP.
+
! CP
 
+
| rowspan="23" width="10" |
;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.
