Wisdom
Wisdom (Wis) is a measure of a character’s mental reasoning and common sense, the ability to make observations, and prevent mental exhaustion. Characters with a high Wisdom are perceptive and intuitive, make good judgment calls, and have real-world understanding and street smarts. Wisdom influences certain casting abilities, the Will defense score, and many skills.
Wisdom also determines your character's Patience, which affects the number of times he may attempt a particular task before he gives up. It also affects the amount of time your character can engage in a Social Encounter.
Look up your Wisdom Score on the table below to determine how it modifies your character's statistics.
