[QUOTE="MidrealmDM, post: 5241213, member: 81646"] [b]Low Magic - Inherent Bonuses[/b] It is for any campaign that uses low/no magic (see 4E Dungeon Master's Guide 2, pp 137-138). It automatically adds bonuses based on level, under the assumption that your character would have these bonuses if they had magic items. If you are using a fair amount of magic items, you shouldn't use this option, because the bonuses will stack with the magic items.
