How Do Character Stats Work?
Fitscape uses six D&D-inspired primary stats that govern your character's abilities and resource pools. Each stat is leveled independently by completing real-world workouts of the matching activity type. Your real effort directly determines your in-game power — there is no shortcut.
When a stat accumulates sufficient XP, it levels up and grants a permanent bonus. Stat levels also unlock stat-specific skills that can be used during dungeon encounters.
Stats at a Glance
| Stat | Abbreviation | Bonus Per Level | Skill Type |
|---|---|---|---|
| Strength | STR | +1 Inventory slot | Physical power, brute force |
| Dexterity | DEX | Agility weapon effectiveness | Agility, precision, stealth |
| Constitution | CON | +5 max Health | Endurance, survival |
| Intelligence | INT | +3 max Mana | Magic, knowledge, problem-solving |
| Wisdom | WIS | +2 max Stamina | Perception, survival, intuition |
| Charisma | CHA | NPC interaction bonuses | Social, leadership, influence |
Strength (STR)
Strength represents your character's raw physical power. Each STR level increases your inventory capacity, allowing you to carry more items. STR skills focus on physical power and brute force in encounters.
Activities That Build Strength
| Activity | Notes |
|---|---|
| Weightlifting / Strength Training | Primary STR activity |
| High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) | Explosive power training |
| Functional Strength Training | Compound movement patterns |
| Core Training | Stability and power foundation |
Strength Skills
Strength skills are unlocked as your STR level increases. They focus on physical power and brute force — gaining advantages in physical encounters, reducing difficulty of strength-based challenges, and enabling raw force solutions in dungeon encounters.
Dexterity (DEX)
Dexterity represents your character's speed, agility, and precision. DEX improves effectiveness with agility-based weapons and skills. DEX skills in encounters focus on agility, precision, and stealth.
Activities That Build Dexterity
| Activity | Notes |
|---|---|
| Running / Outdoor Run | Primary DEX activity |
| Cycling / Outdoor Cycling | Speed and cadence |
| Soccer / Basketball / Tennis | Agility sports |
| Jump Rope | Coordination and speed |
| Kickboxing / Martial Arts | Speed and precision strikes |
Dexterity Skills
DEX skills unlock agility-focused encounter options: evading damage, picking locks, stealth approaches, and precision-based solutions to dungeon challenges.
Constitution (CON)
Constitution represents your character's endurance and resilience. Each CON level permanently increases your maximum Health by 5 points. A high CON character can survive more hits in dungeon encounters.
Activities That Build Constitution
| Activity | Notes |
|---|---|
| Hiking | Primary CON activity, long-duration effort |
| Long-Duration Cardio | Sustained aerobic effort (60+ min) |
| Swimming | Full-body endurance |
| Walking (extended) | Sustained low-intensity movement |
| Elliptical / Rowing | Endurance cardio machines |
Intelligence (INT)
Intelligence represents your character's mental acuity and magical power. Each INT level increases your maximum Mana by 3 points. Mana fuels magical skills and abilities used in dungeon encounters.
Activities That Build Intelligence
| Activity | Notes |
|---|---|
| Yoga | Primary INT activity, mind-body connection |
| Pilates | Controlled, mindful movement |
| Mindful Cooldowns / Stretching | Post-workout recovery with focus |
| Barre | Precision and body awareness |
Intelligence Skills
INT skills enable magical encounter solutions: casting spells, deciphering runes, identifying traps, and using knowledge-based solutions that bypass physical challenges entirely.
Wisdom (WIS)
Wisdom represents your character's awareness and spiritual attunement. Each WIS level increases your maximum Stamina by 2 points. Stamina powers exploration — it is consumed as you move through dungeons and is restored overnight based on your readiness score.
Activities That Build Wisdom
| Activity | Notes |
|---|---|
| Meditation | Primary WIS activity, mindfulness sessions |
| Tai Chi | Flowing, meditative movement |
| Mindfulness Practice | Any logged mindfulness session in Health app |

Wisdom Skills
WIS skills provide perception advantages: detecting hidden dangers, sensing enemy weaknesses, and using intuition to bypass or prepare for encounters before they trigger.
Charisma (CHA)
Charisma represents your character's social power and presence. CHA influences interactions with NPCs in the world of Laboris, opening dialogue options and negotiation paths not available to less charismatic characters.
Activities That Build Charisma
| Activity | Notes |
|---|---|
| Group Fitness Classes | Primary CHA activity, communal exercise |
| Dancing | Social, expressive movement |
| Team Sports | Collaborative athletic competition |
| CrossFit / Group HIIT | Community-based intense training |
