Through practice, study, or intense experience, your character grows in power. This represents the culmination of your recent adventures and the refinement of your capabilities. To gain a level, you must expend experience equal to your current level plus ten, times ten, and spend an hour of rest in contemplation, practice or study.

When you gain a level, you may choose to advance in your current class or take your first level in a new class. Regardless of your choice, you receive the following benefits:

• You receive six points to distribute among your attributes. No single attribute may receive more than three points during this level-up.
• You gain one trait from the class you just advanced in, unless it was the first level in that class, in which case you gain the normal benefits for taking that first level.
• Your maximum stamina increases by 2.

Once these changes are recorded, your current stamina is restored to its new maximum value.
