[QUOTE="Minigiant, post: 9602925, member: 63508"] There is. But not in D&D because in D&D, Strength is closeness to reality and has a long tradition. Thus needs specific rules defining Hulkness. If you say, "I'm 24 STR. I tie a the rope ladder to the boulder, pick it up, and throw it across the gap to complete the bridge " some DMs will say yes, others no. So you need [LIST=1] [*]How big an object you can throw [*]How heavy an object you can throw [*]How large an object you can lift over your head [*]How heavy an object you can lift over your head [*]How far you can jump [*]How high you can jump [/LIST] etc etc Instead of a simpler RPG game could say "You are as strong as a giant and can lift and do the same actions as one would assume a giant can."
