I just threw out a few ideas under the bridge, nothing definitive. I raised Per and Will to 10 CPs each, with Will providing Willpower Points, and Per calculated into Basic Speed, and independent from IQ, with Carisma/Empathy as social attributes. Not so hard to divide actually.

And basically Magery and other Power Talents as a Quint attribute
