[Health]
No explanation required, I suppose.
[Stamina]
Every action consumes Stamina — moving, attacking, defending, dodging, or even taking hits. Crossing difficult terrain or performing special actions drains more Stamina.
Stamina slowly recovers over time, or faster if the character is idle (resting).
[Willpower]
Represents a character's courage and mental resilience. Determines whether they will hold their ground or flee after taking damage, being surrounded by enemies, or witnessing the death of allies. Also affects resistance to Fear and Mind Control effects.
[Speed]
Higher Speed allows a character to act faster and take the initiative in combat.
[Melee]
The ability to hit opponents with melee attacks. This value is subtracted by the opponent's M.Defense. For example, a character with 73 Melee attacking an enemy with 13 M.Defense (and no equipment) will have roughly a 60% chance to hit.
[Ranged]
Same as Melee, but applied to ranged attacks and subtracted by the opponent's R.Defense.
Note: These are only the base statistics. In real combat, countless other factors can change the outcome.For instance, an experienced fighter might still dodge an attack with a 95% hit rate — if he knows how to exploit that tiny 5% chance.
