Randomly decided to check in after years and see talk of Doordie and Amel. Lots of fun memories! Arguably my first long time character, Narwyn, ended up closely aligned with Amel as his protege.
Doordie was one of the best RP's I ever played with. His stories, with his character Amel, were amazing. Rich, deep, complex. I hope Doordie is doing well! You have a really great Uncle!
You don’t need to post a “why”, but it could be fun. It can be short or long, no matter. No mechanics required here, just use common sense. I thought it might be fun to look at. This is based on a 10 is average and 20 is Olympic athlete. I’m just waiting to see all the 20 charisma people.
I added a class to mine too, just to be silly, but it's whatever really.
----- 15 STR, 15 DEX, 8 CON, 18 INT, 8 WIS, 14 CHA - War Mage! -----
15 STR because I go to the gym and it runs in the family.
15 DEX because I practiced sword fighting and martial arts which taught me mobility, speed, and reflexes.
8 CON because I lived around chain-smokers and bad air environments. I’m pretty fit .. except when it comes to cardio. I run for 3 minutes and I’m maxed out.
18 INT because I’m awesome. No really, as a lad I was the kid looking at puzzles, how to build stuff, chess, and other things instead of sports.
8 WIS (9 with gaining level 4) a joke on the 9, but I suppose it has some truth to it. I make a lot of dumb mistakes and wonder why. Tho I’m learning, so the 9 kinda works. Ever put the milk in the cabinet and the glass back in the fridge? That was me. Heh.
14 CHA is because I love being a leader; tho still a work in progress. Give me something to direct others and I’m set. I like to look the part and I’m always on the prowl to better myself when it comes to social interaction.

16 STR / 18 DEX / 12 CON / 14 INT / 8 WIS / 12CHA Soldier.
16 STR because I carry alot. My backpack often weights in around 60 - 80 Kilos. Add combatgear, my gun and clothing on top and we might be looking at approx 90 - 100 Kilos at some days.
18 DEX not because I am amazingly agile, which I am definetly not, but because I am good at ranged combat. Which i seem to recall DEX being a modifier for.
12 CON. because I don't tire easily. I can take reasonable amount of punishment, but I am by no means a superman.
14 INT. I am decent at tactics, employing people at the locations in which they perform well.
8 WIS. I get stressed easily when things do not go according to plan.
12 CHA. I am a decent leader. My voice is clear and easy to hear, however... I am not very good with people outside aspects not military. This means, I work well with other soldiers, professionals in other aspects and such. But in private, I suck... alot. I make a horrendous amount of verbal and written blunders.

10 STR / 19 DEX / 14 CON /15 INT / 15 WIS / 14 CHA
10 STR because I am not physically strong. Even though I use to ruck 80 pounds on my back for miles on end when I was in the military (army) and I was able to left more than my own body weight, however, I only weight 130 pounds.
19 DEX because I am extremely agile, I use to run 2 miles in just under 12 mins, I am a excellent range shooter (if with firearms, bows or crossbows), throwing axes and knives.
14 CON because I am a very healthy man, I can endure pain, I rarely get sick, but when I so; holy crap. I use to run cross country so I have great endurance.
15 INT because I am great with puzzles, problem solving, and apparently from the college test to see where I am at.
14 WIS because I don't get stressed out when things go sour. I'm very logical and think things through. Many of many people always told me that I am very wise for my age; do to me doing so much in my life already.
14 CHA because I use to be a leader in the military, use to lead squads in battle in both training and actual battle. I use to be in charge of shop back in the military, use to lead my team when I was working with the oil business to repair all the technically devices on them, and always been a born leader from what I been told even though I really never liked leading. Ontop of all that, I am actually not a bad looker .

10 STR - No matter how much I work out I never seem to gain much muscle mass. I just remain lean. 12 DEX - Above average in mobility and ranged IRL. But not the main focus, just a measure of support. 16 CON - Able to deal with large amounts of pain, stress, and horrible conditions most people would freak out over immediately. Very healthy also. 17 INT - Current position requires quite a bit of intelligence to perform properly and above the standard. 13 WIS - Have made many mistakes and have quite a bit of experience. I not only specialize in my current job but I also fill in for many other occupational specialties when they are short on manpower. 18 CHA - Seem to have been blessed by being born a natural leader. Direction, purpose, and motivation I have in large quantities. I am always sought out for advice and additional input. Soldiers seem to gravitate towards me using me as an umbrella for my ability to rapidly adapt and utilize skill sets effectively. As for my own physical attractiveness id say I'm slightly above average depending on who is the beholder of said Eye.

17 Strength, I body build. 10 Dext, I'm not agile, im slow, and uncoordinated. 12 Con, I'm a smoker, and have some medical conditions, would be lower but I have a good pain tolerence. 18 Int, I have a PhD in Old Testament Biblical Studies. (Just got it late 09') and I consider myself pretty smart. 13 Wisdom, I know alot of stuff through reading, but common sense towards knowing everyday stuff is gone. 15 Charisma, I body build, but not hardcore, so I have the "california surfer dude" body with bigger arms and chest, and I have stunning blues eyes =P, but I'm not angelic when it comes to looks, I'm just, not one to not look at? And I'm a teacher, I need to know how to lead and be the one in control, it's my job, so that plays a big part into the charisma score.

8 STR because I can't lift a thing. 8 DEX because I drop. Stuff. Constantly. 10 CON because I have so-so endurance. This is definitely one of my best stats. 14 INT because I'm a somewhat quick learner. I think. 8 WIS because I don't think things through, and make horrible, shortsighted decisions all the time. 9 CHA because I'm shy. I made this one a nine instead of an eight because I socialize okay when I try.

I'm just shocked (horrified?) that someone gave you a gun!

14 STR - I've been lifting weights for 3 years, and since 20 is olympic athlete as per the OP, 14 seems fine. A year back it might've been 15, but who the hell cares? 10 DEX - I'm not nimble. I don't have any coordination, but I'm not walking around bumping against things. 12 CON - Even if I stopped playing soccer, I still jog, but I do smoke. 15 INT - I'm a year away from getting my title as an economist with great grades, so I guess I'm okay. 13 WIS - I'm intuitive and see things others don't see, but I'm really stubborn. 12 CHA - I'm not sure being able to lead should count in here, but I can do that fairly well. I also get along with people really easily, but I'm often told I'm quite mean. I do the latter on purpose.
