Stat Progression

Hi all, I'm wondering if the only possible way to increase stats (str, dex, etc.) is through tomes, or do you gain a new stat point every 4 levels (level 5, 9, etc.)? I'd like to build a new character around this principle (ie. take a few points out of non-essential stats to pump up critical stats) if there is natural progression. Thanks for any help.

    There is no stat boost per 4 levels. It is a 3rd edition d&d rule and bg games use a modified ad&d 2nd edition rules system. Only dragon disciple sorcerer kit gains CON boost through level ups. Other kits ability scores stay the same.

    That being said, after the tomes of bg1, there are a few more chances to increase some ability scores in bg2 too.
