Your trait should lead to your characters IC personality which should effect how you write. You become more attached to a character you develop emotionally and physically because you actually care about story than if you were to watch a stat grow. For example: I've personified Vad as a badass for the past 3 years. He's the veteran soldier and ex assassin for hire. He's grown to show more emotion and help his friends and allies. The storyline arc with Sage in '09 changed him a lot. He's had the best combat training anyone could ever hope to achieve. He has a loving wife who also compliments him as a character and has a personality completely separate of his. I've lagged behind the major players since early 2009, but that doesn't stop Vad from being who he is. That doesn't stop him from thinking he could gut a character as powerful as Victoria. Because he's defiant. He doesn't give a fuck. He knows he's an artist on the battlefield.

You want competition and stats, but don't put everything on it's shoulders.
