Like maybe we could change it so that everyone's attributes starts at 1, then they go through a Traveller style lifepath that brings their stats up to around 10, with different races having an easier time of beating the mean.
I like the idea of having each race have a stat maximum that when reached opens up into it's own range, maybe a system like this could be used so that different races have an easier time getting through that range.
OOOH! Can we include a chance to die in character creation?
(I don't think traveler has that anymore, but I played Traveler in the early 80's, and it was definitely a thing then).
