 Using and Changing Stats
What stat you use for a given roll may depend on context. Most acts of violence, for example, would use your MONSTROUS stat.
However, if your society has a well-respected dueling culture, winning a duel might use your SEXY stat.

The more you act a certain way, the easier it is to keep acting that way. Any time you succeed on a roll, move one point out of
the stat you didn’t roll into the stat you did roll.

If your SEXY stat ever reaches 8, you’ve become so absorbed by the need to fit into society that you’ve forgotten who you are.
You betray the party to someone more powerful than you.

If your MONSTROUS stat ever reaches 8, you’ve become obsessed with the idea of yourself as an outsider. You lose all compassion
or desire to work with others. You do something so outrageous that you have to be taken out.
