Attributes (Dragon Age II)

Attributes are the basic building blocks for a character's combat and mental capabilities. The six primary attributes are Strength, Dexterity, Magic, Cunning, Willpower and Constitution. These attributes determine derived stats and resistances, combat prowess, non-combat skills, and reveal new options during encounters with NPCs.

The six attributes appear on the Attributes menu of the Character Record screen, along with Damage, Attack, Defense and Armor
