New campaign, starting at first level. Everybody is rolling
best-three-of-four.
You roll twelve. Six times.
Formally and officially, this is a perfectly good character; it has a
total of +6 bonuses, which is exactly average, and no dump stats.
However, IME most players would groan deeply at this set of rolls.
So, challenge: assuming a vanilla 3.5 campaign, what would you do with
this character? Is there a build that leverages its relative
strengths? Failing that, can you at least keep him alive and
competitive with the rest of the party?
Or will he be dead before 3rd level?

Or shrug and reroll, since no stat of 13 or higher means they're
permitted to by the RAW.
