Characters

Characters are the core of the experience of playing Talisman Prologue. It is through a player's character that he interacts with the game board, travels to new Regions, attacks creatures, and gains Objects, Followers, and powerful Spells. Each player's character card lists his character's Strength, Craft, fate, and life values, as well as a number of special abilities.

Strength

Strength represents a character's might, stamina, and fighting ability. It is used in battle and to overcome certain obstacles that may be encountered during the game.

A character's Strength at any time is the character's Strength value, plus Strength counters, plus any Strength gained from Followers, Magic Objects, and Objects that may be used at that time.

A character's Strength can never drop below that character's starting Strength value.

Craft

Craft represents a character’s intelligence, wisdom, and magical ability. It is a character’s main asset in psychic combat and determines how many Spells he may have.

A character’s Craft at any time is the character’s Craft value, plus Craft counters, plus any Craft gained from Followers, Magic Objects, and Objects that may be used at that time.

A character’s Craft can never drop below that character’s starting Craft value.
