Courage helps in deciding initiative in combat, or if a character can react quickly enough to avoid some nasty pitfall. When a character comes up against something truly frightening or dangerous, their Courage will be tested to keep from running away or being paralyzed with fear. Courage can also help keep a character safe from the attacks of ghostly foes.
A cowardly character would have a very low Courage score (but that doesn't mean you couldn't have a brave character who was timid at first or who pretended to be cowardly). Characters with low Courage are nervous, trembling shells of human beings, always afraid of what's around the next corner. A character with a good Courage score is heroic, tenacious, and laughs in the face of death.
Some who might be thought courageous are Saint George, enlisted soldiers, and firefighters.
