Strength

The Fitness and Forcefulness of a creature

• It is a game mechanic and creature attribute, part of the Universal Personality Profile.

Metahistory

This is one of the fundamental UPP Attributes and has consistently appeared in all versions of Traveller.

Description (Specifications)

Strength is a key indicator of the capabilities of a Sophont or other creature. It describes forcefulness and fitness.

Strength comes in two parts: The range of capabilities afforded by an individual of a specific genetic heritage, and the specific capability of a given individual.

A specific genetic heritage may have notable or weak strength, and (generally) larger land creatures are significantly stronger than smaller ones. The same is not necessarily true for Fliers and Water creatures.
