[QUOTE="CydKnight, post: 7075800, member: 6873462"] One thought I have is that Ability Score Increases are already tied to leveling so except at character creation, those stats are tied to leveling up. Another thought is that we have Feats which can be taken in lieu of an Ability Score Increase at the appropriate level and seem to already serve the purpose of the "skills" you propose. Yet another thought is that having everyone with the same progression across the board removes an opportunity for character customization. The process of determining your Ability Scores, including the choice of how to formulate them, is an important part of character creation. Take away that process and you could be less invested/enthusiastic about playing the character. If you think it works for you, and you can get the Party to agree, then do it. My group would never go for this. [/QUOTE]
