These are lines of text that can be modified and copy and pasted into chargen to aid with the +bulkstat command. I have scripts that make these easy to make, so if there's something you want, let me know and I'll take care of it. I didn't want to do things like Secondary Abilities, as I figured there were too many of them to be useful.

'''Please proofread +sheet afterward''', for a couple reasons:

* Typoing a | character may cause some values to be omitted. +bulkstat does not do sanity checks like "this stat's value should be a number", only "this stat exists".

* Some stats are named differently than you would expect, generally to resolve duplicate names across multiple game lines.
  
To use this, in chargen, type +bulkstat followed by one of these lines.

During character generation, the +bulkstat command can be used to set a list of stats all at once, e.g.

+bulkstat Strength:2|Dexterity:3|Firearms:2|Faction:Cool Dudes|Path Rating:2

Please proofread +sheet afterward, for a couple reasons:

  • Typoing a | character may cause some values to be omitted. +bulkstat does not do sanity checks like "this stat's value should be a number", only "this stat exists".
  • Some stats are named differently than you would expect, generally to resolve duplicate names across multiple game lines.

Use +statsearch to check for names of stats. Some examples:

  • +statsearch Alternate Identity
  • +statsearch Library
  • +statsearch Time

Examples

Here are some common examples of how +bulkstat can be used. These are just examples; you can group stats however you want for this command.

Most of these just fill out your +sheet with zeroes, to make it look more like a paper form that you can fill in. You would then need to set non-zero values for the stats that you actually want, and then preferably remove the zeroes, e.g.

  • +selfstat Awareness=0

or

  • +bulkstat Awareness:0|Brawl:0

Attributes

Set all attributes to 2 (average):

+bulkstat Strength:2|Dexterity:2|Stamina:2|Manipulation:2|Charisma:2|Appearance:2|Perception:2|Intelligence:2|Wits:2

Abilities

For brevity, these lists only include common primary abilities. For a full list, use commands like:

  • +liststats primarytalents
  • +liststats secondarytalents

Primary Talents

Set all common primary talents to 0:

+bulkstat Alertness:0|Athletics:0|Awareness:0|Brawl:0|Dodge:0|Empathy:0|Expression:0|Intimidation:0|Leadership:0|Streetwise:0|Subterfuge:0

Primary Skills

Set all common primary skills to 0:

+bulkstat Animal Ken:0|Crafts:0|Drive:0|Etiquette:0|Firearms:0|Melee:0|Performance:0|Security:0|Stealth:0|Survival:0|Technology:0

Primary Knowledges

Set all common primary knowledges to 0:

+bulkstat Academics:0|Bureaucracy:0|Computer:0|Enigmas:0|Finance:0|Investigation:0|Law:0|Linguistics:0|Medicine:0|Occult:0|Politics:0|Science:0

Mage Spheres

Set all mage spheres to 0:

+bulkstat Correspondence:0|Entropy:0|Forces:0|Life:0|Matter:0|Mind:0|Prime:0|Spirit:0|Time:0

or, for Technocrats:

+bulkstat Correspondence:0|Dimensional Science:0|Entropy:0|Forces:0|Life:0|Matter:0|Mind:0|Prime:0|Time:0

(Technocrats may also optionally replace Correspondence with Data, and/or Prime with Primal Utility.)
