I hope it doesn't cost me any XDM levels, but here's a heretical copy of my custom XD20 Character Sheet. The Stats I've used are Physical, Mental, and a blank spot for whatever the XDM or player wants to insert.

I find this blank spot particularly useful for campaigns and adventures that don't include a magical element for the players. The most common thing to fill in the spot is simply Luck, but in a myriad of adventures it could also be for a specialized skill, something that isn't quite Physical or Mental.

Here are some ideas for uses of the The Third Stat:

Piloting

Charm

Medicine

Engineering

Technical

Mechanical

Stealth

Persuasion

Social

Investigate

Chi

Luck

Strategy

Tactics

Leadership

Thievery

Ride

Courage

Sanity

Nah, I'm good with the 3 base stats in the AXD20 sheet.  Anything else boils down to them having a specific skill, at which point I'll give them a bonus to the roll if they're the type of character that should be good with that skill.

It's their luck.  Which means I adjust the difficulty of hitting them in combat with it.  Also, I've been considering using it if they choose to have their character do some kind of gambling in-game, and I'm also considering having them roll it for when I need a moment of serendipity to help advance the plot.
