I'd boost charisma, because there's not much you can't do by sweet talking people. In the low combat campaign settings, that are the Ontario metropolitan areas, it's arguably the most useful stat - aside from intelligence.

Unfortuanately, I have a habit of filling up my characters with charisma, perception, and luck in combat heavy games like the Fallout series.

(Also, the jinxed and bloody mess traits that I'm so fond of make for an... interesting combination.)

I pick Charisma. Getting people to trust you is more important than being able to out think them or beat them up in our society.

Agility.

Why not? You don't need defense or hp if you don't get hit. And charisma isn't needed when you can just run up to people and mash B like in Prototype.

Is HP just being fat? In which case I'd rather not raise it.

Erm.... Luck? Seem to have the others down (save hp)

Let's say life is like an RPG, and right now, you can add extra points to any of your stats, which do you choose to improve?

HP
Str
Def
Agi
Int
Lck
Chr (charisma)

I'd increase Strength, since the others are pretty decent.
This socially inept geek would like a double dose of Charisma, with a side order of Wisdom if it's allowed. He has intelligence to spare, doesn't care much about agility strength and stamina, and subscribes to the philosophy that says you make your own luck.

Luck as all the rest can be earned over time

HP -eat well and exercise
Str -Work out and build body mass
Def - self defence courses
Agi - dot drills and skipping alone can improve this
Int - take the time to read a few books and a few extra classes
Lck - cannot be improved outside of this scenario
Chr (charisma - go out more, practice in the mirror
Eating a balanced breakfast can make you tougher?

Also intelligence also refers to your memory, logic, and learning speed, so a few classes and a few books will increase what you know, but not neccessarily how smart you are.

I would definately pick HP, because I'm not very tough, and I've probably lost a lot from having so much milk last week (I'm lactose intolerant).

Although I do need some charisma, I'm bad at conversations... Even though I'm in Drama and I'm very good at that so that probably gives me some kind of profession stat boost to charisma...

Would Karate boost my agility? Hmmmm...

Luck. Imagine it. Playing casino games. You would be extremely lucky, getting the right cards, opponents not gettin the right cards. If luck indeed works like that. You could use it to make money to in that respect.
You find yourself with a gun pointed to your head, they pull the trigger.... Nothing... Misfire. Oh, how lucky.
You play the lottery...and oh, look at the numbers, what a stroke of luck...

You getting the point yet people? I choose luck!

Defence. No question, High Defence(/Endurance) means everyone is your eventual *****, in Oblivion, i made all my armour defensive (through saving before destroying those spire things) and no-one stood a chance. Defence and auto regen -lol

HP, as I'm sick all the time. Although that might be LUK/Lck/Luck.

Okay, if not, Agility. I'm strong, I know where and how to hit to make a hell lot of pain. I also can endure a punch and I have a good balance. But if I buffed up my speed... woah. Or just reflexes.
