	Steven is a Human, so his height will be between 1.4 m and 2.0 m (within 20% of 1.7m), and his weight should be between 38 kg and 150 kg (50% to 200% of 75 kg.) We decide to make Steven a short-and-stocky tough guy: 1.6 m tall and 95 kg. We give him 2 extra points of toughness, which uses up 6 CP.

	~~'''5. Find the Character's Encumbrance'''~~

	We find Steven's carrying capacity from his total strength (3) and the [[Mano a Mano:Character Creation#Encumbrance\|carrying capacity table]]. According to the table, Steven's carrying capacity is 2. This means Steven's movement is reduced by 1 meter for every 2 kg of equipment he carries, but fortunately Steven's only equipment is the machete. The machete's mass is 0.5 kg, so Steven's equipment mass is 0.5 kg. This is less than 2 kg, so Steven's encumbrance is 0.

	~~'''6. Calculate Movement'''~~

	~~Steven has no running ability or encumbrance so his stride is 4 meters (4 + 0 - 0 = 4.)~~
	~~Steven has no swimming or climbing ability so his water movement and climbing movement are 0.~~
	~~We leave air movement blank because Steven cannot fly.~~
