Strength - How strong Santa is. This impacts how much damage is done.

Melee determines hand to hand combat skill.

Ranged is Snowball Throwing skill

Defence is how well Santa can defend himself.

Mana skills determine how much mana Santa can have and how quickly that mana is recovered. As skills reach high enough levels, new spells become available. The mana Skills are:

View Spell for casting spells showing you your surroundings.

Fire Spell for casting fire related spells.

Ice Spell for casting ice related spells.

Heal Spells for casting spells to recover health. As this is the only way that health is regained in the game it might be a good idea to spend at least some experience improving this skill.
