Personality and Intelligence
A low Wits does not mean a character is necessarily stupid. They are less observant, less quick to react, and more methodical working through things, but they can come up with clever plans, be well-educated, etc. Or not. However you feel like portraying them.
Similarly a low Spirit means you lack a certain magnetism and force of personality, but you can be as eloquent and social as you like.
Hit Points & Life
HP (up to 10th) = 2 + class starting bonus hp + ((3+VIG+class bonus hp) x level)
Above 10th: +(1+heroic class bonus hp) per level
If multiclassing, use your single highest (class starting bonus hp) and the (class bonus hp) and /or (heroic class bonus hp) for the individual class levels gained.
Reserve HP: equal to normal HP. Converted into HP through rest, putting an upper limit on near-term natural recovery.
Life (rounding down) = 10 + VIG + SPT + PROF
