My might is 17 +3, would by weight limit be 20 or 17?
Should I include the already given equipment in the CS
Edit; nvm
Edit; nvm
so the summary of the stat system is
Step 1; You take 5 rolls and give us 5 sets of numbers
Step 2: We choose 3 sets of numbers
Step 3: One set is given to each of the characters
Step 4: The two primary attributes of the class of each character will get the two highest numbers in the set of numbers that that character got and the four remaining numbers in the set are given to the four remaining attributes. Those are the main numbers and X stands for them
Step 5: the number (X) will determine (+Y). Look at Attribute scores
Attribute Scores:
1-2: -4 | 3-4: -3 | 5-6: -2 | 7-8: -1 | 9-12: 0 | 13-14: +1 | 15-16: +2 | 17-18: +3 | 19-20: +4
+Y is determined by how large the number (X) is. For example if the number is 10, which is between 9-12, you would see that +Y is 0
I just want to see if im correct on how the stat system works

Nation Sheet
Polis Name: Naxos
Demonym: Naxian
Location: The island of Naxos in the Cyclades Islands group.
Government: Elective Oligarchy
Two kings control the government of the state and control the economy, civil rights, and development.
A group of three head priest from the state’s three major deities control religious duties and often interfere in other duties
A council of retired soldiers (currently 5) that have reached the age of 65.
A large council of 69 randomly picked male citizens that vote on laws, motions, etc and help decided disputes.
History: The island city-state was named after the king that settled the island.
Naxos and 300 men, women, and children left the greek mainland from an unknown village pillaged near Laconia. Leaving on two ships brought with all their remaining items, they set sail for the east in search of a new home. As they left at dawn, the sun had begun to rise, the king seeing this as a sign, prayed to Apollo.
After spending months at sea, the people were losing hope till once again at dawn, the shining sun rose from the tip of what will soon be called mount Zeus. They docked and the remaining 150 travelers settled but shortly after building a village, King Naxos who had only ruled for a couple months died in peace. The people named their new home and the island after him.
Before King Naxos had died, he left twin sons at the age of only one months. The people were grateful of the king but a select few tried to seize power, leading to nearly a three years of disorder and many attempted assassinations of the twin boys. The people, tried of the fighting and fearing the life of the twin kings, settled a government which would later be adopted when the kings grew old enough to rule. (Look at Government except no two kings yet, only one head priest, smaller army council, and smaller citizens council)
Seeing the people unite, Dionysus appeared at the growing town one night during a great feast and announced that he shall be protecting the island and kings from any harm till they grew of age, internal and external. Later, the hero Theseus abandoned Ariadne on the island, Dionysus felled in love with her and stayed on the island even though the twin kings had already grown to an age that they could rule the island. Later Ariadne killed herself due to Theseus and Dionysus made her immortal and lived on the island as the island’s permanent protector, often visiting the people. With the kings fully grown and under Dionysus’s protection, the island entered an era of peace.
Years later, the island was ruled by the city-state of Naxos. The King of the Gods decided to visit the island and appeared on top of the mountain that the settlers had first seen when they arrived.
He was praised by the people and made one of the three major gods of the island, as a reward, he made the island flourish and it became more fertile than the surrounding islands. The island entered a golden age.
Even though Zeus and Apollo sided with the trojans, Dionysus who had grown popular with the people was neutral. This caused the island to remain neutral.
Society: The people of Naxos are extremely religious, the priest would nearly have more power than the kings if it wasn’t for the fact that the people are even more loyal to the kings then the gods. They seek to spread the influence of Dionysus to the surrounding islands, this causes neighboring islands to believe that Naxos is warlike. Men and Women are believed to have equal rights except in positions of power in the government and military. Women can still own land and hold positions of religious power which often are more powerful than military and even some government positions. While learning and philosophy is encouraged in the city-state, there are a few that believe the future of the island should be taught their religion over everything. Missing out on religious holidays is frowned upon except when caring for children. The social structure is more equal than other city-states but still have people in power. The kings are at the top, priest and priestess are right below them. Government and military leaders are below the religious positions, and the common citizens whether they specialists or common farmers are at the bottom except for prisoners and atheists that openly speak against the gods.

Tourist and foreigners are welcomed by the majority of the population. Many religions have spread so much in the nation that there is no longer a major religion followed by the people.

The company works with the economy head of the Nesian council and Vaja Council often. It also owns a smaller trading company based on Vaja Island that focuses on national trading between the islands.

Military -
During peaceful times, an army of 55,000 soldiers out of the total population. During war times, the army is about doubled. The small army is often only on the largest islands. Smaller Islands have militias that protect them, but if an island militia causes trouble, soldiers are sent in. The army consist of 25,000 armed soldiers that are armed with swords and shields and wear armor such as chainmail. There are also 15,000 archers that armed with longbows and a shortsword. The last 15,000 consist of specialist that have gone through years of training. The Vaja Archers is a small group numbering 5,000 of elven archers armed with light armor and longbows that are said to be able to hit a target from 200 meters away. The Nesian Dwarves are a group of dwarves number 4,000, they are heavily armored and often armed with battle axes or hammers. The Mirandian Royal Guard is a group of knights that numbers 5,500 and consist mainly of humans but also has a small number of elves and dwarves. Some are mounted knights others are swordsmen but they mainly wear plated armor and carry longswords.
There is also a mercenary company based off an island in the Nesian Region that is often hired in times of need.
Mirandli prides itself on its navy, consisting of 30 carracks, 45 caravels, a large amount of frigates, and many other types of battleships. Many are armed with cannons but still rare. (I don’t know a lot of naval warfare and ships. :/
Landscape: The three regions of the nation were split due to geography. The Nesian Islands consist of mountainous islands, some surrounded by forest but many barren. Vaja Island, the largest island consist of many forest that stretch for east to west. Mirandli Island is hilly and filled with plains. It provides a large amount of grown food for the nation. Cities and towns in the Nesian Region almost seem like they are built into the stone, Vaja Island cities often are overrun by plant life, and Mirand Island cities lay by rivers and the surrounding area is often cleared if it isn’t already.
Wildlife: The seas are filled with sea life of all kinds from crabs, to whales. Nesian Islands are pretty void of life except for mountain goats and high flying birds. Mirand Island is mostly grassy plains so it holds certain animals such as rabbits and foxes. Vaja Island consist of lots of forest wildlife, bears, foxes, birds, rodents, etc.
Notable places: N/A
Summary: A non-racist, mixed cultured, trading nation full of humans, dwarves, and elves that consist of a lot of islands.
History: Short History Lesson. Mirand Island was a petty human kingdom. Nesian Islands were colonized by dwarves. Vaja Island was colonized with elves. They contacted each other and united into one nations.
Strengths:
Trading nation
Strong Navy
Three Royal Families

Social dynamics: Mirandil is a peaceful nation thats a mix of many races, cultures, and religions. While being a mix of many races, the nation is split into three regions by the geography and the major ethnic group of the region. Tourist and foreigners are welcomed by the majority of the population. Many religions have spread so much in the nation that there is no longer a major religion followed by the people. Many crimes such as racism, stealing for greed, and the burning of religious items are severely punished often with years of service or in extreme cases, execution.
The structure varies a bit for the three regions but they mainly follow a standard one.
Royalty-The Royal Family and anyone in close blood relation to royalty.

Trading and tax: Being an island nation, much trading is done between themselves as certain islands can’t produce a certain product. There is a small tax on trading between islands that generates a sizeable portion of the nation revenue. The Vasain Trading company is the major overseas trading company for the nation. The company works with the economy head of the Nesian council and Vaja Council often. It also owns a smaller trading company based on Vaja Island that focuses on national trading between the islands.

Military -
During peaceful times, an army of 55,000 soldiers out of the total population. During war times, the army is about doubled. The small army is often only on the largest islands. Smaller Islands have militias that protect them, but if an island militia causes trouble, soldiers are sent in. The army consist of 25,000 armed soldiers that are armed with swords and shields and wear armor such as chainmail. There are also 15,000 archers that armed with longbows and a shortsword. The last 15,000 consist of specialist that have gone through years of training.

The Nesian Dwarves are a group of dwarves number 4,000, they are heavily armored and often armed with battle axes or hammers. The Mirandian Royal Guard is a group of knights that numbers 5,500 and consist mainly of humans but also has a small number of elves and dwarves.

There is also a mercenary company based off an island in the Nesian Region that is often hired in times of need.
Mirandli prides itself on its navy, consisting of 30 carracks, 45 caravels, a large amount of frigates, and many other types of battleships. Many are armed with cannons but still rare. (I don’t know a lot of naval warfare and ships. :/
Landscape: The three regions of the nation were split due to geography. The Nesian Islands consist of mountainous islands, some surrounded by forest but many barren. Vaja Island, the largest island consist of many forest that stretch for east to west. Mirandli Island is hilly and filled with plains. It provides a large amount of grown food for the nation. Cities and towns in the Nesian Region almost seem like they are built into the stone, Vaja Island cities often are overrun by plant life, and Mirand Island cities lay by rivers and the surrounding area is often cleared if it isn’t already.
Wildlife: The seas are filled with sea life of all kinds from crabs, to whales. Nesian Islands are pretty void of life except for mountain goats and high flying birds. Mirand Island is mostly grassy plains so it holds certain animals such as rabbits and foxes. Vaja Island consist of lots of forest wildlife, bears, foxes, birds, rodents, etc.
Notable places: N/A
