At the beginning of the campaign, each player chooses a single ability score that will exemplify their character. The ability score cap is raised to 22 for that ability and for that character only.  Thus, if my character conception is a Sir Persecutio, the "toughest man alive", I choose Constitution and Sir Persecutio (and no one else) can raise his Constitution to 22 through ASIs.  Of course, this suggestion will only work for campaigns with a stable group of players and a stable cadre of characters (new characters don't appear very often).</blockquote>
