 ===== Attributes =====
+Attributes don’t directly affect skill rolls.
+Savage Worlds treats learned knowledge
+and training as the most relevant and direct
+factors. A high attribute allows one to increase
+a skill faster and opens up options to Edges
+that greatly differentiate two characters with
+the same skill.
+Every character starts with a d4 in each of
+five attributes:
+{{page>Agility}}
+{{page>Smarts}}
+{{page>Spirit}}
+{{page>Strength}}
+{{page>Vigor}}
+==== Using Attributes ====
+Attributes are used to:
+  * Determine how fast skills increase during Advancement (page 54).
+  * Limit access to Edges (page 37).
+  * Derive secondary statistics such as Toughness or melee damage.
+  * Resist effects such as being grappled or counter spells, powers, or social attacks such as Taunt or Intimidation.
