Now you may begin purchasing your attributes. Attributes are your character's personal strengths and weakness, and each one is listed below with a certain point value. That is the number of points that you must spend for that advantages (positive trait), or the number of points that you will gain for taking that disadvantage (negative trait).Every character starts with one hundred thousand points (100,000�) to spend during character creation. If you run low on points then you may get some back by taking disadvantages, but be careful not to spend too many points on attributes because you will also be using your points in Step 4 to purchase weapons, accessories, and special abilities.
Each attribute can only be purchased once unless otherwise stated in its description. Currently in Freelance Reploids, attributes can only be obtained during character creation. If there is a custom attribute that you would like (an advantage or disadvantage not listed below) then e-mail a GM before hand to approve it and determine a price. Remember that whatever attributes you take, you will be expected to strictly adhere to them while role playing. Also, while purchasing remember to keep track of how many points everything costs because you will be required to list the price of everything on your stats when you submit your character.
