Ugh, casul.

Balance of Strength, Charisma, and just enough Int to be college drop out.

Wow m8, just wow.

Reduce CHA, improve INT, get rid of flaw: asthma

I'm happy with everything else

>>44596624
You know, wisdom is pretty handy too. Resisting people trying to bullshit you, being observant and generally having good judgement are always useful.
>>
Lower CHA

More INT

Same amount of CON/STR. I like being a sturdy mother fucker.
>>
>>44596483
Basically what I've got, but move charisma to wisdom. I fail so many will checks.
>>
Slightly higher WIS to make me a functioning member of socity
Stay at currently level of INT and DEX
Increase CON
Slight increase of STR and CHA

Remove elitist flaw and we're good

>>44596483
I'd probably take some points from STR and put them into CHA and WIS.
>>
>>44596483
Different background.
If that's not a possibility, more Con - everything else is good, but average Con just couldn't cope with some of the shit I've been through.
>>
>>44596483
Same ones that I originally started with.

I rolled quite good on my starting stats, it was the "earning and spending the XP" part that I fucked up.
>>
>>44596483
Do I get to pick which system too?
Anyway LUK and INT get maxed and hopefully a WIS analogue so I can recognize my lucky breaks and then abuse them for maximum gain then try and balance the rest, spend all my skills on gambling, survival and other useful skills, then see if I have enough points for some fun traits/perks probably try and take as many disadvantages as a I can, but minimize them by choosing ones unlikely to come up.
>>
>>44596483
Can I take 18 wisdom before choosing my stats?

>>44596483
I'd probably give myself -10 hp :^)

;_;

God I know that feel.
>>
Whoever statted me in the first place was a bastard.
High INT, low WIS, high CHA with social anxiety, average physicals.
Smart enough for university, can't get in due to background lacking the raw funds and too low WIS to realize it when I could have gone for scholarship. Good enough CHA to talk my way through most situations, I just can't stop the stuttering and even hand tremors.

I'd dump the CHA, swap INT/WIS and use the shit from the CHA dump to raise STR/DEX a little. Or use the points to buy off the anxiety, if that's allowed. I'd rather be an ugly motherfucker whose hands and tongue don't turn to fucking spaghetti in regular conversation than have the charisma to write good speeches I can't fucking perform.
>>
Str, Cha, and Luk build.

Traits would be something to do with easier persuasion, and randomly finding money.

>>44600070
Changed my mind.

Con, Cha, and Luk

Lower WIS
Raise CON and DEX

Why level up anything else when you can get men to do it for you?

You are retarded. This is like going into a thread that says 'what superpower would you choose if you could have one' and you'd respond with 'omnipotence'.

Jesus fucking christ.
>>
>>44601611
Well, yes. If I could choose one and there are no limitations, why would I go for something less than the best? OP did not stipulate limits of any kind, so naturally the answer is to get the best you can get. I have no idea why you'd bitch about the logical decision.

The answer isn't intresting to you? Tough shit.
>>
12 across the board.
I'd be better than many people at most things and have a natural aptitude for virtually everything.
Maybe a 14 in any one stat--I'm not really sure what sort of stat generation we're supposed to be using.

Nepotism exists in all countries though. Even in a famously "non-corrupt" country like the Netherlands, most job applications are filled through the back door. Who you know is a lot more important than what you can do, as long as you have a diploma (and even if you don't, there are more than enough employers willing to educate you internally if you can get a foot in the door).

It's also why the Jews run the show. It's not some /pol/ conspiracy, Synagogues are just the place to be for networking, even if you aren't practicing (average high IQs help too). Churches used to work this way too before they became unpopular.
>>
>>44596483
Charisma as best stat (makes life easy)
Constitution as second best (gotta be healthy)
Then make Int, Wis, and Str average and Dex as a dump stat
>>
High CHA, high CON, whatever the rest.
>>
10 Wis
10 Con
Dump Str and Dex
Raise Int and Cha as high as possible
>>
Im pretty happy with my build. I wish I would have put more into luck but still.
>>
>>44596483
Current build is kinda high INT, ruined by a lack of SAN, so I'd like to get some more WIS. Also, low CHA. Problem is, I'd like to keep my STR and DEX, so I'd have to dump some out of CON, and I'd constantly need to buff that to keep kinda healthy.
>>
>>44601985
Mate, latin countries take it to a whole new level.
>>
>>44596483
Maxed out Int, Wis, and Cha.
>>
Max out wisdom and charisma. Use insane will save and self confidence to resist procrastination and follow my dreams. Level other stats up as needed because god damn it I believe in myself.

Rolled 5, 2, 2, 4, 3, 3, 1, 1, 5, 5, 2, 1, 5, 3, 4, 6, 4, 5 = 61 (18d6)

IQ 18. After that, I don't really care, being the most intelligent man ever.

Str 9
Dex 10
Con 7
Int 8
Wis 9
Cha 15

Overall modifier -2, I am below average in nearly every regards. Though I am reasonably charismatic, so that's something at least.

>>44603924
Not with an IQ of 18 you're not. I think you might mean INT. Though with an IQ that low, I think wee can forgive these mistakes.
>>
>>44596483
I'm actually fairly happy with my stats themselves. I'd like to get rid of a few flaws like Allergies, social awkwardness, low self-esteem, and lack of motivation though.

The main thing I'd change is changingthe M to F. HRT is no fun.

He's talking about GURPS stats. 18 in GURPS is good.

How many stat points do I have? Assuming the 6 basic stats.
>>
>>44604048
Also isn't it meaningless since people grow trough life, I mean if we take the stat analogy further, WIS, INT and CHA are determined by upbringing, STR, CON and to some extent DEX are the only ones that are really genetic.
>>
>>44603242
I'm pretty cocky about my intelligence and I would give myself a 13-14. Anything above that is pretty much superhuman imo.

Intelligence is tricky to define. Higher IQs can be attributed to proper nutrition and development, as well as proper education at valuable times in development. More than any of that, I've learned that 90% of real intelligence is a willingness to learn. More than anything it's a part of people's personalities.

Also you achieve enlightenment at 20 wisdom.

Maybe life is like that. You essentially win the game when 1 of your stats hits a +5 stat modifier.

I can tell you right now....there would be one awesome baby with Charisma.

I'd have settled for a full set of 10's, honestly

18 Con 16 Cha, dump Int and Dex.
Iron jawed and silver tongued is the best way to go through life.

>>44596483
4d6, 3 columns, pick the best numbers.

>>44596483
Are we using point buy, and if so how much? Or are we shifting what we perceive to be our own "stats"? Or are we just picking whatever we'd want in a given stat?
>>
>>44596483
18 CHA, rest as average as possible. Dump DEX or WIS if needed.

Would have decreased Dex for more Cha
