	Besides their level, each character has three main stats which help to further define their abilities: '''Strength''', '''Intellect''', and '''Reflexes'''. '''Strength''' is a measure of physical power. It primarily helps as a factor in dealing extra damage in combat, in hand-to-hand combat (but not ranged). '''Intellect''' represents smarts, focus, and your ability to observe the world around you. High intellect can increase the damage that most spells deal in combat, and also can affect whether you're surprised by opponents, or whether you surprise them. '''Reflexes''' represent agility and reaction time. Reflexes play a part in determining how well you can dodge opponent attacks, and how well you can aim your own attacks. High reflexes also allow you additional shots with ranged weapons. All three of these abilities modify how your hero performs in combat, but for the most part they're secondary to level and skills in determining your success.

	Each character also has two other important stats: '''Hit Points (HP)''' and '''Power Points (PP)'''. '''HP''' represent how much damage you can take from opponent attacks before you need to rest or heal yourself. '''PP''' reflect an amount of superhero power that you can tap into in order to use your hero's special abilities. The game tracks both your current levels and your character's maximum—for instance you might see HP written as 5/10, meaning that you have 5 ~~hit points~~ left out of a maximum of 10.

Each superhero is one of four classes: Elemental, Naturalist, Gadgeteer, and Psion. Each class has a distinct set of abilities and weaknesses, and will tend to have a different method of approaching and solving problems. (See more on [[classes]] on that section of the manual.)

	Your character is described and defined by a variety of numbers and statistics. Foremost in importance is your character's '''Level''', which is a rough indication of how powerful your hero is.

	You gain levels by collecting '''Experience Points (XP)''', which is a measure of how much your hero has learned from his or her adventures.
