Portage Ability

A Character's Portage Ability equals:

(Str×2)+(StaB×20) or (Str×2) whichever is greater

This value is a weight, in pounds, that the Character can carry without reducing his MR. Per 20% increase over this value, the Character’s MR is reduced 10%, with the amount of the reduction being rounded up.

EXAMPLE — Vobal the Dancer has a Strength of 20 and a +2 StB. His Portage Ability is, (20×2)+(2×20), 80 pounds. His MR is 13. If he carries 120 pounds of weight, excluding his body weight, his MR is reduced by 30% to an MR of 9.
