=== Strength ===
 
=== Strength ===
−
Alters the damage done in melee (increases velocity of weapon swings), increases muscle mass (a thicker muscle layer also resists damage more), and increases how much a creature can carry. Higher strength also increases the speed of fast [[gait]]s in most creatures, including running, soaring, galloping, and fast swimming, however, proportionate gains in muscle mass can eventually reduce speed enough to overtake the gains (more so with larger creatures than dwarves). The dwarven median of 1250 is higher than average.

Because dwarves in general have below-average agility, and because the descriptions are based on the difference from the racial average, no dwarves will ever display as "abysmally clumsy".

Each attribute is a number between 0 and 5000, but in dwarven terms anything below 200 is rare [http://dffd.bay12games.com/file.php?id=5882] and anything above 2500 is extraordinary. In the default raws (/raw/objects/creature_standard.txt), dwarven attributes come in four levels.

Focus and Spatial Sense are referred to as "++", or two steps above default. Their range is defined as [700:1200:1400:1500:1600:1800:2500], which sets out six ranges: 700-1200, 1200-1400, etc. Dwarves have an equal chance of dropping into any of these ranges, and an equal probability again of getting any number in that range. So the bottom one-sixth of your dwarves will be really low, the top one-sixth really high, and the two-thirds in the middle huddled around average. This also means that the median and the mean are slightly different: the mean for ++ is 1516.66... while median is 1500.

It would seem that various skills train various attributes at different rates. For physical attributes and Willpower, military training works best - it relatively quickly gives a dwarf some extra Agility and Strength, making them walk and work faster in all areas (According to [http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=121573.msg3944723#msg3944723] speed is a factor in determining how fast a labour is completed).

According to [https://www.reddit.com/r/dwarffortress/comments/zquv8f/psa_you_can_build_a_gym_for_your_military_with/] Reddit post, strength and stamina can be trained via screw pumps reasonably quickly. The pumps don't have to be adjacent to any liquids, and dwarves will still operate them, pumping air.

Plant gathering trains Agility, Kinesthetic Sense, and Memory to a lesser degree. After a couple of years, plant gatherers become the faster dwarves in the fortress and are generally suitable for transfer to any demanding job.

Attributes are capped in Adventure mode and probably also in dwarf mode. Those caps are governed by {{token|MENT_ATT_CAP_PERC}} and {{token|PHYS_ATT_CAP_PERC}}. By default the maximum attribute values (barring increases from vampirism and other interactions) are governed by the starting value as well as the median for that caste (that is the middle value in {{token|PHYS_ATT_RANGE}}, for example 1000 for most attributes for dwarves).

The speed of learning attributes is governed by "cost to improve" in {{token|PHYS_ATT_RATES}} and {{token|MENT_ATT_RATES}}. By default CTI for attributes is 500, which means the counter for using that attribute has to be incremented 500 times for the dwarf to gain 1 in that attribute. The lower the CTI, the faster an attribute increases. According to [http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=66525.msg3993120#msg3993120] the counter is incremented every ten ticks a skill using that attribute is in use. This means it takes 5000 TUs or just over 4 in-game days of continuous labour to improve an attribute by 1. The improved attribute gain from military training may stem from the fact that sparring and individual combat drills train multiple skills at the same time.
