At level 1, each player is awarded a set of points with which to create their character. The scale rates from 24 point for an average human to 32 points for a heroic human. These are used to buy character stats and feats. Additionally the player may chose one or more templates for the character; additional templates may be bought, similar to feats, during character creation using points, but templates are typically not available during subsequent levels.
A character starts with a stat of “0″ for Body, Mind and Soul. Each stat point costs creation points equal to its value. Thus, increasing Body from 0 to 1 costs 1 creation point. Increasing from 1 to 2 costs 2 creation points, etc
Total point costs for core stats:
Core stat of 1 – costs 1 point
Core stat of 2 – costs 3 points
Core stat of 3 – costs 6 points
Core stat of 4 – costs 10 points
Core stat of 5 – costs 15 points
Core stat of 6 – costs 21 points
etc.
Human average is considered to be “3″ for each core stat.
The set of feats and templates will be described in a later post.
or you could use cards to….never mind.

In principle cards are fine too – but the idea is that “this” system can be used with online chat so you can RPG on IRC or some similar environment.
