'''Carrying capacity''' is the measurement of how much weight a character can carry.
'''Carrying capacity''' is the total weight your characters can carry. If a character carries more weight then their carrying capacity they will become {{Cond|Encumbered}} or {{Cond|Heavily Encumbered}}.
* Nearing this value applies penalties to movement and other abilities;
== Change carrying capacity ==
** Exceeding 80% of this value will cause {{Cond|Encumbered}}.
Determined by the character's [[Strength]], with the formula {{code|40 + (Strength * 10)}} (multiplied by 2 if using [[Options#Gameplay|the Imperial System of Measurement]]). Any change in your Strength will immediately change your carrying capacity, too.  
** Exceeding 93.33% (repeating, of course) of this value will cause {{Cond|Heavily Encumbered}}.
 
** Exceeding 100% of this value (without reducing the limit) is not generally intended, though it is sometimes possible with [[Containers]].
This value is then modified by the '''single highest value''' (multiple sources do not stack; only the highest applies, thus making [[Human]]s effectively immune to carrying capacity reductions) in the following table;
* Initially calculated as {{code|40 + ([[Strength]] x 10)}}kg or {{code|80 + ([[Strength]] x 20)}}lbs, and will update accordingly whenever Strength changes.

**This value can then be multiplied by the '''single highest modifier''' in the table below; multiple effects do ''not'' stack.
*** For instance, a character with 27 Strength and {{Cond|Bull's Strength}} will have {{code|(40 + (27 x 10)) x 2.00}} = 620kg (or 1240lbs) of carrying capacity; additionally being a Human, becoming {{Cond|Reduced}} or {{Cond|Enlarged}}, or gaining {{Cond|Elixir of the Colossus}} or {{SAI|Aspect of the Beast (Bear)}} will not further change this value.
*** As a result, Humans are effectively immune to carrying capacity reductions.
