good standard action attacks unshackles you from full-round actions
mobility options that get you around the battlefield
defensive tricks beyond just high AC
and when you really need to, you can still wreck face with a full attack

And I deliberately picked Harry Potter as a fiction example that doesn't translate exactly into Pathfinder, and thus would requires some refluffling.

Lvl 1 Human Commoner, straight 10 for stats +2 Cha from the human bonus.

1 rank + 3 skill focus + 2 magical aptitude + 4 trait +1 Cha = +11 UMD

Add another +2 for Hermione breathing down your back and that's a 70% chance of activating a wand. I'd take those odds.

An Owl at market price costs 10gp and your +5 Handle Animal is enough to teach it the deliver and fetch tricks if you take 10. The owl and the wand costs a pretty penny; but you have had Rich Parents so you can afford it.

Yer a wizzard now 'arry.

Why play as a big strong Fighter when you can play as a Commoner and pretend that you're a big strong fighter.

Daily reminder that casting Animate Dead on a corpse to make a magical skeleton is an affront to nature, but casting Animate Object on a corpse to make a magical skeleton is totes okay and is guaranteed to get lots of laughs from mace wielding clerics.

There's already a STR to AC feat, it's called Heavy Armor Proficiency.
