Heroic Action Role-Play

Body is a measure of strength, mass, and resilience. It is closely linked to size and weight. Heroes sometimes have more body than their size indicates, but unless supernatural forces are at work, the difference is unlikely to be very large.

The table below gives typical weights (in kilograms) and length (in cm) for different Body ratings. This assumes a body that fit or heroic. Most creatures living a physically active life will be fairly close to these values.

Weight is a ceiling on Body values. Depending on fitness, the actual Body can be up to ten points lower. A very fit hero weighting 100 kilos has a Body of 10; an overweight couch potato weighting 100 kg can have a Body as low as 10 and be out-wrestled by a dog.

Length is greatest overall length based on weight; the tails of animals are not included. Animals that are very thin and stretched out can be up to twice as long. Body is tied to weight, not length; certain worms can be prodigiously long yet still have comparatively low Body scores. This does not take the cube/square law into account; animals and realistic creatures tend to grow proportionally shorter and more bulky as they advance in weight while fantastic creatures like giants do not; this table is for non-realistic giants.
