Charm
Charm is how pleasant and persuasive you are. Charm is the social stat of our game. Charm is added to your dice pool’s result for the basic moves of Deceive Person, Defuse, Manipulate Someone, Read Person or Seduce Someone basic moves
-1 Robot You are like a little robot. You get the whole “feeling” and the whole “talking” thing, but by and large it’s usually a waste of time- either because you're surrounded by idiots who don’t understand you or simply because you lack the capacity to care about them. Frankly people are confusing and more trouble than they are worth. There’s something a bit sketchy about you and people aren’t sure what to do about it.
0 Average - You are able to hold a conversation, and you are able to fade right into the background. You are generally a nice person and probably have several friends.
1 Friendly- You are a general nice person, or at least you come off that way to most people. Small children probably trust you implicitly and ask for help from you before they go to others. Sometimes, not all the time, but sometimes, you walk away with free stuff because people genuinely seem to like you.
Cool
Cool is how calm and collected you are. Cool is the willpower and calm, collectiveness stat of our game. Cool is added to your dice pool’s result for the basic moves of Act Under Pressure, Help Out, Hiding/Sneak/Stealth, Interfere with Someone, and Wasteland Survival.
-1 Temperamental - You have little to zero control over your emotions or your ability to pay attention, you're probably a little impatient. You are likely considered something of a hothead or a crybaby.

-1 Oblivious - You are not the most quick to notice or to think. Perhaps it’s because you're a little to busy having an internal monologue to notice what's going on around you. Perhaps you're a daydreamer. No matter what distracts you from your surroundings (or thinking) it’s enough that your ability to process information is neglected.
0 Average - You have an average IQ and while it takes time to figure out some things not in your normal areas, you can get there without too much trouble.
1 Bookworm - You probably got high grades in school or you an exhibit an above average intelligence. Your rather initiative and notice a lot about what’s going on around you.

-1 Out of Shape - You may or may not have been a couch potato, or perhaps you just hate fighting and much prefer to squeal like a small, high pitched terrified horror-movie person and run away..?
0 Average - You can run when motivated by zombies for short periods of time. You aren’t going to fall over and die if someone punches in you in the arm. You are just nice and average.
1 Dabbler of Sports - You have a sport or two you call your own, you are a bit athletic and coordinated.
Weird
Weird is our game’s version of magic, intuition and gut instinct or anything relating to the supernatural/ paranormal. Weird does not determine your MP pool or your magic proficiency. Weird is added to your dice pool’s result for the basic moves of Assume Shape, Channel Energy, Invoke Past Lives, Open your Brainz!, and Use Magic.
-1 Flukes - Your magic is almost completely based on a mixture of luck and sheer desire. That is, when it happens it happens like a Fluke, with little control and a lot of chaos.
0 Average - You believe in magic but your a bit skeptical. There’s parts of having magic that are cool, and parts that aren’t so cool. You're not sure if this is a good thing- or a bad thing-
1 Awakened- You believe in magic, and you’ve studied up on it a bit. Perhaps you are a natural at figuring out how to use your magic.
