It's a point based system for character creation. So you've got say 150 pts to buy your stats and skills and abilities with. Given that you are generally only handing out a few points for character improvement and it's very high cost for boosting stats and abilities past a fairly moderate range. (The char points for increasing a stat or skill essentially double for each increment.) People will not be turning into the "Superheroes" that you get in high level D&D.D&D is intended for "heroic" game play, if you want to keep them as dirt scratchers you are better off using a different system.</blockquote>
