Experience and Levels

Gaining Levels
When you reach the minimum necessary experience for the next level, the Level Up icon lights up and you have the option to increase your level. When you do, the game will display the character creation screen and allow you to assign ability and skill points.

Each level, you gain 3 ability points and 3 skill points to assign. You can also choose to assign any points you saved from previous levels and/or character creation. You can only increase each skill by 5 points per level, including at character creation. You can get a skill of 6 at character creation, though, if it is a skill granted by your Class/Axiom combination.

Maximum hit points and mana points increase at each level, determined by Strength, Endurance, Intelligence, Wisdom, and Perception.

After leveling up, your current hit points and mana points are restored to their new maximums. As a result, it can be helpful to delay leveling up until you have low HP and/or MP, such as during combat.
