Vital Statistics
Pathfinder Core Rulebook, page 168
The following section determines a character’s starting age, height, and weight. The character’s race and class influence these statistics. Consult your GM before making a character that does not conform to these statistics.
In this section
- Age You can choose or randomly generate your character’s age. If you choose it, it must be at least the minimum age for the character’s race and class (see Table 7–1).
- Height and Weight To determine a character’s height, roll the modifier dice indicated on Table 7–3 and add the result, in inches, to the base height for your character’s race and gender.
- Carrying Capacity These carrying capacity rules determine how much a character’s equipment slows him down. Encumbrance comes in two parts: encumbrance by armor and encumbrance by total weight.
