A Character is an individual living entity that interacts with the rest of the World.
General[]
Each character has general characteristics.
| Characteristic | Description |

Attributes[]
Attributes have a number between 0 and 10. They only have an effect and will be displayed up to 10, although the actual value can go higher and allow to keep 10 stats when using stat-reducing items such as 
Evil Essence. They influence a wide range of actions and are an important factor to determine a character's talent for Cultivation. The Five Attributes is what we call in brief of Perception, Constitution, Charisma, Intelligence, and Luck. It can be increased further, for example by studying manuals or consuming specific Pills (more details on the Five Attributes page). The following table mostly reproduces the in-game description:

Skills[]
For specialized work, skills determine the speed and output of actions.
Outer Disciples have the following 15 skills: Mining, Farming, Construction, Crafting, Social, Artisanry, Cooking, Medicine, Battle, Qi Sense, Magic and Magic Crafting.
The ability rating of a skill is determined by a combination of the skills level, the influencing attributes and some background stories.
Characters can be passionate or obsessed about Skills, which determines their speed of learning and gaining levels, and their ability to get positive moodlets from them.
Properties[]
Characters also have more than 180 Properties, that define how good a character performs in certain tasks.
Customization[]
Player controlled characters can be customized in the character creation screen, influenced during the YaoGuai Raising or affected before incarnating a Sentient Spirit.
Character stats may also be edited with the in-game Console and Mods such as MODModifier.

A character progresses through various steps beginning as an Outer Disciple. Each step increases their Cultivation Level, makes the character stronger, more resilient and more adept at learning.
