Intellect is a character's raw brain power.
Call it IQ, learning curve, or smarts, an intellectual character has an easier time remembering information, thinking in abstract ways, analyzing data, learning new things, and solving puzzles or mysteries.
Intellect is used to tinker with machinery, perform surgery, and create works of art.
A character with a poor Intellect score is a buffoon for whom learning and problem solving is impossible, and who rarely gets a punchline. A character with a high Intellect score is possessed of an active mind which analyzes situations and information with frightening speed.
Some examples of highly intellectual people include detectives, scientists, artists, and Merlin.
