+## Stat Modifiers
+Each of the six base stats also has a "modifier" based on its value.
+The modifier is calculated like so: `Stat / 3 - 3`, rounding down to whole numbers.
+
+For convenience, here is a table of the modifiers for each stat value:
+
+{% table() %}
+| Stat  | Mod. | Stat     | Mod. | Stat     | Mod. |
+|-------|:----:|----------|:----:|----------|:----:|
+| 1,2   | -3   | 9,10,11  | 0    | 18,19,20 | +3   |
+| 3,4,5 | -2   | 12,13,14 | +1   | 21,22,23 | +4   |
+| 6,7,8 | -1   | 15,16,17 | +2   | 24+      | +5   |
+{% end %}
+
+## Base Stats
+Listed here are the six major character stats and what they affect along with a few
+examples of what sort of actions they might be rolled against to determine the success of.
+
+**Strength [STR]:**  
+A character's physical brute force and melee ability.  
+Strength is rolled against when attempting a melee attack.  
+The strength modifier is applied to the damage they with melee attacks.  
+The number of items they can carry on them is equal to their strength.
+
+Examples:
+- Pushing, pulling, or lifting something heavy
+- Breaking down a door
+- Hanging onto a ledge
+- Knocking something over
+
+**Dexterity [DEX]:**  
+A character's general physical skill, agility, and ranged ability.  
+Dexterity is rolled against when attempting a ranged attack.  
+Certain melee weapons may allow using dexterity rather than strength when making attacks.  
+A character's ability to dodge in combat is determined by their dexterity.  
+
+Examples:
+- Doing a delicate task, such as soldering an electronic
+- Performing and acrobatic feat
+- Grabbing onto something to prevent from falling
+- Swiping something without being noticed
+
+**Constitution [CON]:**  
+A character's physical resilience and overall health.  
+Constitution is rolled against when resisting physical harm or other effects on the body.  
+A character's maximum health is determined by their constitution.
+
+Examples:
+- Resisting extreme temperatures
+- Recovering from illness or the effects of poison
+- Dealing with the effects of starvation or dehydration
+- Consuming things that would cause one to vomit
+
+**Intelligence [INT]:**  
+A character's general knowledge-base.  
+
+Examples:
+- Identifying an object
+- Researching an obscure topic
+- Decyphering an encrypted message
+- Utilizing complicated or strange technology
+
+**Wisdom [WIS]:**  
+A character's perception and mental fortitude.  
+Wisdom is rolled against to determine the order of combat.  
+
+Examples:
+- Seeing through deceit
+- Spotting hidden dangers
+- Resisting torture
+- Estimating the severity of a threat
+
+**Charisma [CHA]:**  
+A character's latent social skills.  
+The charisma modifier is applied to morale checks for followers.  
+
+Examples:
+- Claiming to be a different person
+- Persuading someone to your side
+- Winning the crowd over in an argument
+- Leading and organizing a group of people
+
+## Health
+A character's maximum health is equal to twice their constitution stat plus their current level: `(CON * 2) + Level`.  
+
+## Skills
+Skills represent specific actions or subjects that a character has special
+training or intuition for.
+
+Skills have a level, ranging from `1` to `6`.
+
+When a character is attempting to do something that a skill reasonably applies to,
+add that skill's level to the roll.
+
+## Levelling Up
+Characters level up after getting through a particularly tough or otherwise important experience
+or whenever the GM feels it would be a good time to.
+
+Follow these steps when levelling up a character:
+
+1. For each stat, roll `1d20`. If the roll is higher than the stat's current value, increase the stat by one.
+2. Choose a skill and roll `1d6`. If the roll is higher than the skill's current level, increase that skill's level by one.
+2. Update health to reflect new level and constitution.
