If a rule called Attributes exists, remove it. Create a subrule of Demographics called Attributes with the text:
There exist a number of Attributes, each of which represent a fundamental quality a living being can have. Each Monster Species has an Affinity for every Attribute, which is one of “Amazing”, “Good”, “Average”, or “Bad” and defaults to “Bad”. These can be interpreted numerically as 4, 2, 1 and 0 respectively. A Species’ Affinity for an Attribute represents its natural disposition towards that Attribute. The table of all Attributes and their corresponding Affinities can be found below:
{| class="wikitable"
|+ Affinities
! Species || Resilience || Power || Quickness || Sneakiness || Sociability || Smarts
|-
| Demon || Amazing || Amazing || Amazing || Amazing || Amazing || Amazing
|-
| Goblin || Bad || Bad || Average || Good || Average || Amazing
|-
| Minotaur || Good || Amazing || Good || Bad || Bad || Bad
|-
| Ghost || Good || Bad || Bad || Amazing || Average || Average
|-
| Vampire || Good || Average || Average || Average || Good || Average
|-
| Slime || Good || Average || Average || Good || Good || Bad
|-
| Mimic || Good || Average || Bad || Amazing || Average || Bad
|-
| Imp || Bad || Bad || Average || Average || Amazing || Good
|-
| Elemental || Good || Amazing || Average || Bad || Bad || Average
|-
| Wyvern || Good || Good || Amazing || Bad || Bad || Bad
|-
| Phoenix || Amazing || Average || Good || Bad || Bad || Average
|}When a new Species is created, an entry for it is added to this table. If a Species ever has all its Affinities set to “Bad”, the Demon King should set thematically appropriate values for its Affinities, ensuring the Affinities of the new Species sum to 8 when they are done.
The attribute numbers are feeling like they’ll be a bit unwieldy so here’s a possible alternative.
