Whoops!
OK in online tabletop we get to present our character and the DM helps us flush things out (Even backgrounds, that can get a hand-wave to change one skill...maybe one wild-card skill to replace any one skill in your total line-up).
I like the idea of an "invent yourself" software wizard (in character creation) that lets you make some manageable choices. Something to compliment the players own personal "theater of the mind", and not break that immersion.
Heck you can even have some fill in the blanks.

...hmmm, you get the idea.
