Great! I rolled up a normal everyday turd. I shall name him Wes.

I moved three points from Size to Dexterity, for a more realistic Wes I'd leave the Size and Dexterity unmodified, but this is a fantasy game so...

I'm not excited at all to play with these stats, so for me, I'd go with 24 Stat Points to spend.
