Strength
========

Strength represents your character's raw physical power.
It is a physical stat that affects melee combat and carrying.

Effects
-------
  Carry Weight  - Each point gives +10 weight capacity
  Melee Damage  - Passive bonus to physical attack damage
  Weapon Req.   - Heavy weapons require minimum strength
  Armour Req.   - Heavy armour requires minimum strength

Formula
-------
  Max Carry = Strength x 10
  Weapon Requirement = Weapon Weight x 2

Tips
----
* Essential for warriors and melee fighters
* Low strength limits what weapons and armour you can use
* If you can't wield a weapon, try increasing strength
