=== Notes ===
== Weight ==
* 'Maximum Weight' in this table refers to the weight of the creature, rather than the creature's carrying capacity, which is determined by its [[Strength]].
The weight of a creature affects whether or not a character can {{SAI|Throw}} or {{SAI|Shove}} it.
* When the {{SAI|Enlarge/Reduce}} spell increases or decreases a creature's Size and weight, additional weight is added or subtracted if necessary to place the creature in the correct Size category.
A creature may throw items and other creatures weighing up to {{InfoBlob|[[Strength]] * Strength * 0.2 kg}}.
 
For example, a [[fighter]] with a [[Strength]] score of 18 can throw objects weighing up to 64.8 kg / 130 lb.
