Character Creation

The biggest part of the way that the OVA system works is describing your character's abilities. Essentially their strengths and their weaknesses. Does your character lack the ability to cook? Is your character strong? Do they play an instrument or are they easy to distract? All of these are used in character creation.

Players will give their character strengths and weaknesses on a point scale balanced between the points spent on abilities and points earned through weaknesses. The NPCs with write ups are made on this scale and can be viewed in the PCs and NPCs section. Currently we are using a +5 ability ceiling system. Players will make their character's total ability score equal to 5+ their total weakness score. Also ineptitudes and hobbys are purchased on a 2 for 1 basis, or in other words each point is only worth half the normal value.

Players also have a base Health of 40 and a base Endurance of 40. However these numbers may also be increased and decreased based on the abilities/weaknesses they take.
