It's absurd a character improves his jump or climb skill using his intelligence... as would be absurd a character improves his Knowledge(Religion) using Strength.Maybe characters could get two groups of skill points, one for physical abilities and one for mental abilities.For example:In standard system a fighter get 2 + Int  Modifier skill points.It we use two groups, it could be:1 + (Str Mod + Dex Mod + Con Mod)/3 physical skill points and1 + (Int Mod + Wis Mod + Cha Mod)/3 mental skill points.Physical skill points can be used only in physical skills, with the costs of standard system, and mental skill points can be used only in mental skills.What about extra skill point for humans?... uhm... maybe the player could choose in which group he wants add the extra point.What is your opinion about this idea? maybe a bit complicated...</blockquote>
