Class Stats Comparison Table

Normal 0-level humans start with 1 HP, 1 PP, 1 Strength, 1 Intellect, and 1 Reflexes.

Transmogrified characters have an extra +5 HP, in addition to their 0-level human base stats.

Gain per level

Class	HP	PP	To-hit	Dodge
Naturalist	12	8	11	9
Gadgeteer	11	9	10	10
Elemental	9	14	8	9
Psion	8	12	9	11

Strength, Intellect, and Reflexes

At first level, each class gets 7 attribute points: +3 to their prime requisite and +2 to their two secondaries, to bring them to 4/3/3 (before modifications due to talisman).

Class	Strength	Intellect	Reflexes
Naturalist	+3	+2	+2
Gadgeteer	+2	+2	+3
Elemental	+2	+3	+2
Psion	+2	+3	+2

At second and succeeding levels, each class gets 15 attribute points, distributed through weighted randomizing among Strength, Intellect, and Reflexes. The random weighs are summarized below:

Class	Strength	Intellect	Reflexes
Naturalist	50%	25%	25%
Gadgeteer	25%	25%	50%
Elemental	33%	33%	33%
Psion	25%	50%	25%

What this means is that while an attribute with 25% chance will usually get 2-5 stats (average 3.75), an attribute with 33% chance will usually get 3-7 stats (average 5), and an attribute with 50% will usually get 5-10 stats (average 7.5), a distribution of 15/0/0 is also possible, for all classes and for any attribute, although this is highly unlikely.
