Size (SX)

The size trait is one of a set of 7 categories within a base. This means that there are 7 categories of size at base{0}, 7 categories of size at base{i} etc. Each increase in size number represents a rough quadrupling of the size (volume) and weight of the creature. This is why freens and grey ronites are 25 to 30 kilograms in weight, while a human is closer to 100 kilograms in weight.

Size can be compared between bases, allowing us to understand that being medium (M|4|0) at base{0} is a hundredth of the volume and weight of medium (M|4|0) at base{i}.
