| − | + | There are three '''Attributes''' used in '''Age of Dragons''': | |
| − | + | '''Soma''' is ''"body"'' - the clay from which a dragon's physical body is formed. Those with strong soma are brutally powerful, resilient and physically adept. They tend to be more agile when on the wing, and can achieve greater feats of strength and endurance. | |
| − | + | A Dragon's ''Soma'' attribute sets the dice pool for any tasks relating to pure physical prowess. | |

| − | + | '''Sophis''' is ''"mind"'' - the intellect and will that governs and guides the Dragon. A strong sophis indicates keen intelligence, good memory, strong logic and great force of will. Dragons with well-developed sophis are not easily dissuaded from their chosen course, and are more adept at intellectual pursuits of all sorts. | |
| − | + | A Dragon's ''Sophis'' attribute sets the dice pool for any tasks relating to mental strength or mental agility. | |
| − | + | '''Pneuma''' is ''"breath"'' - the mystical force which the ''Mother Goddess'' animated the first ''Dragons'', and the living energy that accounts for all movement and change in the world, be it the burning of a candle, the flow of a river, or the flight of a dragon. | |
| − | |||
| − | |||
| − | + | A Dragon's ''Pneuma'' attribute sets the dice pool for any tasks which relate to social charm, using magic, artistic creativity, environmental awareness or acting with grace and fluidity. Essentially any task that doesn't easily fit under the auspices of ''Soma'' or ''Sophis'' can be handled using ''Pneuma''. | |
| − | + | One of your '''Attributes''' is rated at "3", another at "4" and the last at "5". The following six combinations are possible - pick one that best represents your dragon's strengths and weaknesses: | |
| − | + | * Soma 3, Sophis 4, Pneuma 5. | |
| + | * Soma 3, Sophis 5, Pneuma 4. | ||
| + | * Soma 4, Sophis 3, Pneuma 5. | ||
| + | * Soma 4, Sophis 5, Pneuma 3. | ||
| + | * Soma 5, Sophis 3, Pneuma 4. | ||
| + | * Soma 5, Sophis 4, Pneuma 3. | ||
| − | + | Be aware that even in your weakest attribute, you will still have far beyond human capabilities. For example, and average human soldier only has Soma 1, Sophis 1 and Pneuma 1, and even a mighty human wizard with a lifetime of arcane study and training will only have Soma 1, Sophis 1 and Pneuma 2. Dragons are powerful in mind, body and presence, potent in magic, and generally superior to mere mortals. | |
