Stats

[Burter Jr]

Strength is your sheer power, while attack power is it's partner. Attack Power is how much damage you would do.

Defense and Recovery are self explanatory.

Speed and Stamina are as well. You can't really have one without the other. Being the fastest in the RPG is useless if you can't run for a long time.

Intelligence, Luck and Determination don't have any influences to your powerlevel, but can have influences to a battle. Also, people who have their stats on about the same level have fewer chance to die. You can outsmart people, 'see trough their actions' or just have a lot of luck. With a high determination, you just keep pushing everything you got.
- For every 100 points of luck you get an extra +50 Zeni. (Added automatically.)
- For every 50 points of Intelligence you get an extra Best Move.
When you reach the next 50, make a post on the Updates board saying what you want to be your new extra best skill/Move. It cannot be a Technique, and if the new Special Move is thought up, it will be judged by the Staff for balance reasons. Note that you have to make a thread on the roleplaying boards inventing your new special move.
- For every 100 points of Determination, you get an extra training point. (Added automatically.)

[Kaden]

Strength - determines the power of both physical and ki attacks

Defense - Your character resilience to being hit

Speed - how fast your character can move, including reflexes and the like

Stamina - how long your character can fight or sustain their energy

Recovery - ability to recover from being injured. no matter how high, though, this doesn't give any regerative abilities, or anything like that. (obviously, though, you're a Nanemkian so you have them anyway)

Attack Power - the ability to translate your physical strength into an actual attack. Without a proper amount of Atk Pwr, you attacks will waste your potential strength and not be at their full power.

Intelligence - this one's about as obvious as it gets. Intelligence plays a huge role in mastering some of the various techniques, as well as measuring how smart your character actually is. In terms of fighting, this can be applied to battle tactics, or analyzing an opponent's abilities.

Luck - how lucky your character is. Don't really know how to further explain it.

Determination - essential for obtaining powerups in CDBZ. Determination also effects your character's resolve to do something and, if high enough, can even push your character to fight beyond their normal limits.
