So I was thinking about various stats in RPGs...
I'm not an experienced RPG roleplayer because my life won't allow it. But I still think about them a lot, especially cause I used to do lots of game design a while back. Mostly video game stuff, modding and such. And to some extent I think they follow similar principles, at least in my opinion.
One thing that crossed my mind was the intelligence and wisdom stats that occur frequently. At least in the systems I've looked at. As far as I've understood it intelligence is the ability to acquire and use knowledge and wisdom is more the sum of one's knowledge and how it leads to more unwritten accounts of knowledge. This is probably incorrect though, but I know it's something like that, correct me ifamwrang. Anyhow, my question was as follows:
Which roleplaying system do you think represents a characters quality of mind the best? And is there any system that stays especially true to the meaning of both words, or any synonyms used.
