Editing Basic Mechanics (section)

= [[Stats]] =
'''Stats''' are one of the core mechanics of ''Beyond the Pale'' and are most commonly used when [[Rolls|rolling dice]] in threads. They are inspired by [https://poweredbylesbians.com/srd/core-rules/ Thirsty Sword Lesbians]. 

The first five stats are Daring, Grace, Heart, Wit and Spirit. They are most commonly earned through redeeming threads, but can also be earned by consuming [[Beetlefox's Shop|items]]. The last stat is Oath which is the rarest and most difficult to get, only being able to be earned through completing [[Expeditions]]. All stats (including Oath) may be occasionally earned through participating in events or raffles. 

The primary usage of stats is in [[dice rolls]], but can also be used in a roleplaying capacity to showcase your character's skills and personality. For example, a character with high Heart is more likely to be charismatic and empathetic, while a character with low Daring might be weaker and more sickly. However, this isn't always the case, especially for new characters who haven't earned many stats.
