A Rant about Wisdom

[Chacal]

STR and CHR === Ability to impose change on your surroundings and others
DEX and INT === Ability to interact quickly and accurately with your surroundings and others
CON and WIS === Ability to resist change imposed from your surroundings and others

Simple and Nice.

Plus it shows that willpower is split between Charisma (as an active force) and Wisdom ( as a resistance)


I like it !

I'll said it again:

Strength <--> Charisma. This is your raw mental willpower.
Dexterity <--> Intelligence. Mental finesse, in a way.
Constitution <--> Wisdom. Your resilience to other's willpower, and thus your own passive willpower (by opposition to Charisma, active willpower).

Just saw that ByronD said it before in that thread.

Tss, Tss, when you skim through a thread, have a look at the last post too

It wasn't there when I started typing.

It's something I have said for age, though. Since well, since I had read the 3e rules, in 1999.

Wow ! It took you more than 45 minutes to type it ! Do you happen to have a real life, or were you caught in another message board ?

Gez enjoys no life, much like I.

As for me, Wisdom equals willpower primarily because SPIRIT and Wisdom flow from the same well. If they didn't, we'd have less wars because then Charismatic leaders would be far wiser and stronger willed. Which is obviously NOT the case.

caught in another message board ?

NKL. I browse 4-5 sites at the same time, when one page is slow to load, I switch to another site in waiting.
