STRENGTH

Pure physical power — lifting, striking, shattering. A perfect grade is planet-shattering, the middle is a peak-human athlete, the bottom is ordinary.

SPEED

How fast the hero moves, reacts and dodges — from street-level sprinters to speedsters who outrun light. A top grade means almost nothing can catch them.

DURABILITY

How much punishment the hero can absorb before going down. A perfect grade means nearly unkillable, the middle is armored-hero tough, the bottom goes down in one clean hit.

COSMIC POWER

Power drawn from the universe itself — the Power Cosmic, cosmic rays, the energy of stars and celestial beings. A top grade is galaxy-scale might.

MUTANT

Mutant powers — the X-gene and mutation-born abilities. A top grade is Omega-level mutant; a grade of 10 or lower means the hero can't be rolled for this ability.

MAGIC

Mastery of mystic forces — spells, enchantments, sorcery. A top grade is Sorcerer Supreme level; the lowest means zero magical aptitude.

BRAINS

Raw intellect, strategy and preparation — genius inventors, master tacticians and detectives. A top grade is world-class genius, the kind that builds impossible tech or out-thinks gods.

INNATE ABILITIES

Powers the hero was born with or permanently gained — mutations, alien physiology, a spider-sense. Not gear, not training. Graded by how strong and versatile those natural gifts are.

COMBAT

Hand-to-hand and weapons mastery — fighting forms, tactics, killer instinct. A perfect grade is a master of every fighting style ever created.

TECH

Tech, gadgets and gear — suits, bows, trick arrows and everything built rather than born. Graded by how much their tech changes a fight.
