Aptitude Point Updates

The Quill · Post by **The Quill** » 07 Jun 2026, 17:07

As characters continue their journey, their Aptitudes will increase. This can come from graduation on July 1st every year, or the purchase of abilities that raise your aptitudes.

The aptitude points listed on your character's profile must be edited by a staff member.

Please use the template below in a reply to this thread to apply for these changes.

Code: Select all

Old Aptitude points:
Physique # | Agility # | Intelligence # | Charisma # | Spirit # | Sorcery #

New Aptitude points:
Physique # | Agility # | Intelligence # | Charisma # | Spirit # | Sorcery #

New aptitude points: 5, 15, 8, 6, 8, 8, 10
Reason for change: Moved up a year.

Hey @Gage Frawley and @Archer Murray could you please specify to which aptitudes exactly the new points match? I am not sure what order you have listed them in here, and for Gage, there is a number too many in the New aptitude points list.

@Mural
Yeah, I can do that! Sorry for the confusion! The extra score (the ten) was for Sorcery; I just didn't realise I hadn't updated it by mistake!

It goes: Agility (5), Charisma (13-16), Intelligence (8), Physique (6), Spirit (8), Sorcery (8-10). Archer has the same order! His scores are: Agility (8), Charisma (10), Intelligence (4), Physique (6-10), Spirit (6), Sorcery (3-5). Hope that's good!

I've done @Archer Murray, those numbers are fine.

For @Gage Frawley there is something you need to do which you probably were not aware of yet.

The only way for any character to have more than 13 points in any aptitude is for them to get special abilities which allow you to break the cap.

For example, you want Gage to have 16 charisma. That's possible, but requires Gage to have these abilities:

Prominence - Charisma (costs 50 AT). This bumps the Charisma aptitude cap from 13 to 14
And Mastery - Charisma (costs an additional 100 AT). This bumps the Charisma aptitude cap from 14 to 15
And Grandmastery - Charisma (costs a furhter 200 AT). This bumps the Charisma aptitude cap from 15 to 16

So you need to spend 350 of your advancement tokens on these three abilities to unlock the full capacity on Gage's charisma.

Two more notes:

Every time you buy an ability that adds a [/u]permanent[/u] +1 aptitude, post in this thread so we can log and apply the aptitude change.
You may want to submit a refund request through the ability shop of your charming x2 (tier 1) abilities. Those can be activated once per thread but do not break cap. Meaning that they will not raise your charisma from 16 to 18. Basically, you have zero use for the ability Charming if you are at 16 charisma, so I recommend you refund them, which will help give you some of the AT back that you need to buy the Prominence, Mastery and Grandmastery abilities.

Hope that's clear!

New Aptitude points:
Physique 11 | Agility 11 | Intelligence 9 | Charisma 7 | Spirit 8 | Sorcery 4

Reason for change: graduated to year six

Note: On the AP tracker in the profile, it says I'm at 51 used AP points but my fifth year numbers add to 46. Maybe the permanent modifier abilities are affecting it?

Updated!

Yes abilities that alter your aptitudes are being counted as well. This way I - and other mods - can quite easily see if a character has abilities that modify their aptitudes. Being over on AP is not a bad thing!

So for Kasimir, it breaks down like this:
11 + 11 + 9 + 7 + 8 + 4 = 50
+1 fom Athlete ability = 51
+1 from Hermes ability = 52
+1 from Resolute ability = 53
+2 from Part-Veela Alluring ability = 55
