4. Stats
Firstly, before you try to figure out how to make all your stats I need to explain modifiers. Your modifiers will be the numbers you use to determine how much your abilities effect your HP, MP, FP and skills. To find your modifier you take Ability - 10 and divide by 2.
Examples: Your strength is 8. 8 - 10 = -2/2 = -1. Your agility is 12. 12 - 10 = 2/2 = 1.
You can have negative numbers and you can have positive numbers. However, you cannot have fractioned numbers. If you come out with an uneven number like 1.5, round down to 1.
HP: To figure out your Health take 10 + Endurance Modifier.
MP: To figure out your Magaicka take 5 + Intelligence Modifier.
FP: Now, your FP is totally different from the game. We're going to use this as FIGHT POINTS, which will determine how many attacks you can do per post. You gain an extra attack for every 10 levels of your weapon skill.
CP: To figure out how much you can carry take your 20 x Endurance Modifier + 10
Dodge: To figure out your dodge take your Level + Agility Modifier.
Resist Spell: To figure out your resistance to magicka take your Level + Willpower Modifier.
Resist Disease/Poison: To figure out your disease and poison resistance take your level + Endurance Modifier.

5. Skills

Example: Armorer (Endurance): 5 + 1. So, this character has earned 5 points towards armorer from his character race and through leveling up. He's trained the skill once during this current level. If his endurance is at 0 then his total Armorer skill is at 6 ( 0(Mod) + 5(Race/Level) + 1(Current)).

Here's my character, since there was no other place to put it like an rpg spot.
Name: King, nickname Azaroth
Race: Khajit(lion)
Class: Thief
Sign: Thief
Guild: Southwall Cornerclub(Thieve Guild)
Armor: Glass and Robe of Deeds
Weapon: Glass Short Sword(to be made), Bow of Shadows, Master Lockpick, and Dagger of Symachus
Shield: Glass Shield/Riekling Shield
Amulet, ring, belt:
~Boneguard Belt
~Far Silence Amulet
~Ring of Healing
~Ring of Reaching
Home: Balmora & Suran
Second character is werewolf(Fang). He lives in Mournhold.
I think the game needs more glass weapons like the glass short sword. It's the only weapon I need to complete my character. Yes, I dont like Daedric short sword cause it doesnt match.
