Starting from scratch (with a character that is somewhere around levels 1-5), what would be the most important skills and attributes that we would work on for this character, and in which order? |
Can we make this a points-based RPG (GURPS, Champions, FUDGE etc.) rather than a level-based one? Levels are an unrealistic mental constraint, IMO and a points-based system is much more empowering.

A very interesting and valid point, but I suspect largely academic. There is no practical difference to subtracting ego (or whatever) points to reach enlightenment, than there is adding "ego-reduction points" until you reach enlightenment.
Wow, this post really tapped into my inner geek...
