Potential(stat)

Potential (abbreviated to POT) is a minor attribute employed by the default Casting Mechanics in AdVarTa. It represents a character's ability to source Arcane energy for spells et cetera.

Mechanically, Potential is the base spell power of a character. In other words, it's the treshold for "easiness" for a casting.

Development
Unlike Control, Potential is limited to a character's Arcana attribute. It can't be higher than it, except for a limited period under very rare circumstances (see casting). Its value is complimentary to the value attributed to Control of a character, but does not benefit from any other attribute, unlike Control, which may benefit from Dexterity, Strength, Toughness or even classes and traits.

Application
The default casting has a difficulty treshold of what is considered easy under determined circumstances and this depends on Potential.

actually, I forgot how does Potential work. Can't find the annotations... =(
