Funny thing is I grew up with Alternity and in that system you can treat anything but Intelligence as a dump stat and still be pretty good.

Puts max points into the physical. Killey dey ass, survive to the end. For a Weren, that's 48 points, and the GM points out that that might be a wee bit much. No fucks are given, and the stats of STR 16, DEX 12, CON 16, INT 4, WIL 4, and PER 4 are noted down. Dumb as rocks, angry at the world (and unlikable for it), and about as perceptive and strong-willed as a cauliflower. Just the way he likes it. He gets an action check of 12+/11/5/2, and immediately bitches about it. The GM sighs. He then gets to sigh even more, as Grr'Arg gets 0 last resort points, 2 actions a round, 24 Wound and Stun, 12 Mortal and Fatigue, and can take a total of... 2 Broad Skills, with 15 skill points to go around.
