Well theres about 15-20 skills in Fallout; I imagine we'd have a similar number of skills in our RPG. You could spend all those points on one skill and boost it a lot, or make several skills a bit better.

Also, this page has a better overview of SPECIAL, Perks, Traits, and Skills: http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/SPECIAL

I highly recommend checking it out.

Each race could have two traits and a predefined set of Attributes (i.e., Strength = 5, Perception = 6, Intelligence = 7, etc.). Also, what about a class for Xi-wielding beings?
