Stats

There are eight stats to create a character for my game, these are Strength, Dexterity, Intelligence, Wisdom, Constitution, Charisma, Perception and Comliness. All of these stats are rolled as follows, 4d6 rolled for each, taking care to re-roll any one's, and then take the highest three. Thus your stats should average between 13-16.
