      Proficiency Calculator

      Proficiency Calculator (Testing Phase)

      Our Proficiency Calculator is designed to develop your character’s abilities based on their age or random dice rolls.

      • Age-Based Stats: Each year of your character’s age determines their starting abilities. For example, a 30-year-old character begins with each ability at 30.
      • Dice Roll Stats: Roll a six-sided dice for initial stats, modified by developmental stages, significant life events, hobbies, work experience, family legacy, genetic factors, and heritage, aligning with typical Level 1 D&D characters.

      Total Proficiency Gain Formula:

      Total Proficiency Gain = (((Duration * Stat Gain Modifier * Frequency Factor * Intensity Factor) * (1 + Enjoyment Level)) * Activity Multiplier)

      Calculation Breakdown:

      1. Base Stat Gain: Multiply Duration (in months) by Stat Gain Modifier to establish initial stat gain.
      2. Engagement Frequency: Include Frequency Factor to adjust base gain based on activity engagement.
      3. Effort Level: Apply Intensity Factor to reflect effort exerted.
      4. Personal Satisfaction: Adjust gain by (1 + Enjoyment Level) to incorporate personal satisfaction.
      5. Activity Normalization: Use Activity Multiplier to standardize gains across activities.

      Feedback Request: We are seeking feedback to enhance this tool during its testing phase. Your experiences and suggestions are vital for improvements. Please share your thoughts to help refine the calculator.
