Characters

A character object contains a variety of attributes/methods which tend to differ from character to character.

Attributes

• name
• _role (e.g my_character.Fighter)
• _race (e.g my_character.Human)
• _background (e.g my_character.Noble)
• _alignment (e.g my_character.LawfulGood)
• age
• Strength
• Dexterity
• Constitution
• Intelligence
• Wisdom
• Charisma
• actions
• armor_class
• character_sheet (e.g print(my_character.character_sheet))
• entity_id
• experience
• hp
• initiative
• inventory
• level
• saving_throws
• skill_points
• skillbook
• speed
• target

Methods

• attack
• look_around
• move

Character Bank

The character bank is a collection of all the characters that have been created. It is a dictionary of character objects, with the key being the name of the character. More conveniently, the character bank also allows you to access the characters as attributes. A saving system(using python's pickle) is currently under development. Until then your character's are only saved for the duration of the program.

from CharActor import character_bank, create

# Create a character
character = create('my_character')

# Access the character
my_character = character_bank.my_character
print(my_character.character_sheet)
