That's the problem with rolling your stats after picking your class. In P&P you choose your race, roll your stats, and then pick the class best suited to them. That way you don't risk deciding to become a mage and then finding out that you can't cast simple cantrips. Or deciding to be a Barbarian and then realizing that you can't pick up a two-handed sword. Or choosing to be a Bard when you're harsh-tongued and tone deaf.
