28.2 Abilities
An Ability is a single entry within a type. Create one with the green "New Ability" button. Fill in:
- Name (e.g. Magic Missile) and its Ability Type.
- Tags — optional keywords for filtering.
- Short Description — the line that shows on a profile.
- Long Description — the fuller text shown in a pop-up when the ability is clicked.
Adding abilities to a character or entity
Abilities are assigned per character. On a character or entity profile, anyone with edit rights clicks "Edit Abilities", which opens a checklist of all ability types (grouped by folder). Tick the abilities to grant and click "Update Character Abilities" (or "Update Entity Abilities"). On the profile, abilities appear grouped by type, each opening its full description on click.
Deleting cascades. Deleting an ability type deletes all abilities within it and removes them from every profile; deleting a single ability removes it from everyone using it. Neither can be undone. (Deleting a folder is safe — its types just become unsorted.)
