Making Tests

Making tests in Horizon: out of the ashes is a fairly simple process once you're used to it, though it may seem complicated at first. To make the best explanation, it's important to first understand how a Character is built and what the different stats are intended to do.

SKILLS

Skills represent the knowledge, training and practice your Character has with a specific activity. To represent this, your rank in a Skill provides you with a fixed bonus whenever you use that Skill. The bonus is always equal to the Skill's rank.

For example, if you had Stealth rank 4, then you would always get +4 score, whenever you use the Stealth Skill.

TRAITS

Traits represent your Character's fundamental attributes, such as how intelligent they are, how nimble they are and so on. This means that Traits will improve your Passive stats, like Health, Stamina, etc., but also that they may benefit you when using certain Skills when you are more “talented” in the relevant area.
