BASIC ATTRIBUTES FOR DOGS (because you probably haven't made a dog before)

A large guard dog would have a strength of 9, while the smallest dogs can have a strength as low as 4.

A typical dog has an IQ of 4. However, will and perception are typically at normal levels.

Move for a large dog is usually higher than that of a human's; closer to 10. The smallest dogs would have a move lower than that of a human.

A dog's speed can be close to that of a human's.

Adjust size modifier appropriately. A very small dog would have size modifier -3 while the largest dogs have size modifier 0.






Players should make two versions of their dog, one with the superpowers stripped out (just a normal dog).

The superpowers can be anything you would normally see in a comic book, but not magic (that is, no spells).

For the first session, your dog will be a normal dog, so don't develop a backstory for how the dog got its powers. If you already came up with a backstory that's critical to your character concept, let me know and I'll figure out how to work it in.
