Leveling
You obtain levels when experience is achieved. You collect experience points by completing quests and killing monsters.
Leveling up heals your hero fully and increases the HP available by 2 per level.
Total experience needed - maximum health.
LVL 2 - 5 XP - max HP 12
LVL 3 - 15 XP - max HP 14
LVL 4 - 30 XP - max HP 16
LVL 5 - 45 XP - max HP 18

Attack Power of Magic Staff / Sword = Level of the Weapon + 2 (a universal bonus)
You start your adventure with LVL 0 Weapons -> their Attack Power is 0 + 2 = 2 AP
After you upgrade the weapon to LVL 1 -> Attack power = 1 + 2 = 3 AP
Note: For purposes of advanced monsters the + 2 bonus to the level of your weapon should be considered a modifier and not part of the base attack. However, if something states that it is based off the attack as a whole then the level and all modifiers are considered.
To further upgrade your main weapons you can obtain the Growth Weapon Enhancement Bauble by completing Practice Makes Perfect Quest. The Bauble increases damage each turn in battle by 1 for a single weapon. (First Turn +1, Second Turn +2, Third Turn +3). When calculating values based on attack power of weapon, each round must be re-evaluated.

I've been trying to get caught up with some other challenges, so I've been a bit slow to get started here. I'm going to set up my thread and read everything and then come up with my questions.
ROLE or PLAY are both fine, although the Y might be a bit trickier. Thanks so much for your help, and I'll make sure to get my welcome basket
