Yes, but be careful of the skill points. Don't tell the players how to use
them directly. You ought to be able to provide a list of skills they can
choose from so long as you don't create a direct link between that list,
'plot hooks', and the character creation process. Non-textual visual clues
will help a lot in this situation.
