Carrying capacity is the measurement of how much weight a character can carry.

  • Nearing this value applies penalties to movement and other abilities;
    • Exceeding 80% of this value will cause Encumbered Encumbered.
    • Exceeding 93.33% (repeating) of this value will cause Heavily Encumbered Heavily Encumbered.
    • Exceeding 100% of this value (without reducing the limit) is not generally intended, though it is sometimes possible with Containers.
  • Initially calculated as 40 + (Strength x 10)kg or 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.
